Happy Birthday, Love!

How does my husband spend his birthday afternoon?

...Putting in our new bathroom flooring!

I love it!

After a dinner of chicken parmesan, we had marble cake!

Oh yeah, it was really good!

Babe, what's with the creepy eyes?


...and the crazy, fake blowing out the candles face?

Hmmm... maybe this is what 45 looks like... craziness!

He finally gave me a good picture.

There is the face I love!

...and then...

there was this beautiful card!

Here is what it said...

Any parent

would be thankful

to have a son like you,

because you give

so much of yourself

as you share

the sometimes fun,

sometimes touching,

always wonderful moments

that go with being a family

and having a family

of your own...

So thank you, Son,

for the special ways

you enrich all of us,

but mostly for the opportunity

of seeing you turn out to be

the strong, caring father

we always dreamed you would be--

the kind of man you are.

It makes cry--reading it over again.

Beautiful!

...and just the way I see him.
