We went back to the hotel to get ready for the concert after our little trip to the middle of nowhere so we could fight. Though we both said a lot, I don’t think we actually resolved anything. We just opened up wounds that are going to need time to heal.

While he gets our drinks between the opening act and Josh Turner going on tonight, I can’t help but think about everything that’s happened today. I can’t help but think he’s going to disappoint our daughter so he can go and ride. And make more money. That upsets me, but there isn’t much I can do about it.

I guess it helps knowing, even beyond riding because it’s in his blood, he has a plan for us in mind that will be a direct benefit of his riding. One he never shared with me, but I wish he would have. I can’t help but think of the fact that I don’t need that, either, though. I don’t want him to make me, our family, an excuse for him to leave us. Even if I know he really does want to have another baby still. I know he loves us. I know he wants our family to grow and thrive, and he absolutely means it when he says he wants his earnings this year to go toward infertility treatments and trying to have a baby.

I know, too, that even if we’d already had our baby, he wouldn’t quit riding. He wouldn’t quit trying to be the best. He wouldn’t quit chasing the dream. Garth Brooks has it right in his song. I want Chase as much as he wants rodeo. He will never give it up. He will give anything to continue to ride. He needs it like he needs air to breathe. I know that. I knew when I married him. He would give anything to have the challenge and rush each go round. He lives for the thrill of every ride, hearing the buzzer, riding in the short every Sunday because he’s that good.

It’s being as good as he is that allows him to continue riding every weekend. He does make money. It is his full-time job. On top of our business at home, he doesn’t have to scrape together any entrance fees, hope and pray that he’ll make enough to feed, clothe, and provide for our family every weekend. He’s given us a life we can sustain until we are old and gray. He’s given us a life where we want for almost nothing.

I just fear he won’t be living it with us, because the abuse his body takes, the knocks and danger could rip him away from our family now, or earlier in life than he should be taken after he retires. It terrifies me.

I saw what could happen when rodeo sucks a man in and doesn’t give him back. My parents fought constantly, Dad dragged us from rodeo to rodeo, made me ride, and put it above all else.
