In high school I had "rules" for what my future husband would be like (in no particular order):
1. "Tall" - I am short and wanted my children to have a "fighting chance" at being average height.
2. Faithful and good father for our kids.
3. Have a shorter last name that is higher up in the alphabet that is also easier to pronounce. I was always annoyed at being last at graduations, the end of classroom role....etc.
I did good in the first two categories. The third one....um... it is one letter shorter, but closer to Z than A in the alphabet. I did fall lower! But the jury is still out on being easier to pronounce.
I was talking to a co-worker (a 19 year old) about her boyfriend and she laughed when I told her my "rules." I have to laugh at them too! Nice to know what was important at the time!
