My husband part 2

So I talked to him after he wouldn't talk to me for like a day or so, and explained to him how selfish I thought all the things he wanted were. He told me "I didn't even think of those things that way" I then explained to him that I could get no joy out of a motor cycle or an ipod and hope that he wants to save his money for things for us to do together.

I bought my truck 2 weeks before we got married knowing that if we got a truck that it would have a backseat and be equipped for a carseat for any children that we have. I think about the future a lot. I also refuse to buy a car without 4 doors for the same reason. Our house, it's bigger than we need right now. What if we wanted to expand our family by a child or 2 more than we have? I wanted to have the room instead of saying "honey I'm pregnant, I guess we need to get a bigger house!"

I explained that I would like to do things as a family with him when he gets home and not worry about whether or not we had the money to do them. I will be paying off my truck here in a little while and I just want to put money away in case Mike doesn't get the best paying job when he gets done with Iraq and the army. And what if we have an unexpected setback...I just don't want to be asking anyone for the money!

I think he understands where I am coming from. I think we can actually go forward now. I am hoping and praying that now we can communicate about things easier and without getting angry at each other.
