Longing for Romance, for Spontaneity, for Something. Sigh....

I love my husband.  He's everything I've ever wanted in a partner and MORE.  He doesn't complain when i wake him up at 5AM to feed one of the babies so that I could get ready for work.  He's a hardworker and a great provider for our family.  He's always there for me when I need a shoulder to cry on and someone to lean on.  He never forgets my birthday, our anniversary, or Valentine's Day.  Sometimes, he'll even come home with flowers for no reason at all.  He's my best friend and the most important person in my life, and I have no reason at all to complain about him. 

But today, just today, I really would love some romance in my life.  I want to be swept off my feet again.  I want him to want to take me out on romantic dates and constantly tell me how beautiful and sexy I am and how he would never be able to live without me.  I want him to surprise me with tickets to a paradise getaway.  I want him to fall in love with the me that I am Today and repropose and get remarried. 

Maybe it's not romance that I'm craving, but just some spontaneity in my life.  The last two years have been pretty monotonous for me.  I wake up in the morning and i do the same exact thing that i did the day before and the day before that and the day before that.  I wish I could wake up one day and find out that a long lost rich uncle have just left me a huge amount of money and i never have to work again.  I'd buy a beautiful new home for my family, hire my sister as my nanny, and take my whole family on a trip across the world.  I'd have a vacation home in every continent and we would have everything we ever wanted and everything we would ever need.  I guess that's everybody's dream, huh?  To be able to do what you want, when you want and have financial freedom.  Who knows?  Maybe I'll win the lottery one day.
