For Tim on his Birthday...

Today is my husband's birthday, and sometimes with the busy-ness of life and the craziness of parenthood, I don't get to quite express how much he means to me. I thought instead of getting him a sappy birthday card, I'd write him a sappy blog entry....for all the world to see. :)

I love how you make me laugh and go out of your way to cheer me up on days I'm tired/stressed/grumpy.

I love that you are adventurous and encourage me to be adventurous along with you.

I am proud of how hard you work and how passionate you are about doing a good job.

It makes me smile when you unload the dishwasher and put things away in random spots. But it doesn't matter, because you are helping. :)

I love watching you with Sam. You are a great father. He loves you so much: I can see it in his eyes and hear it in his voice when he says "Papa".

I love the way you hold me.

I love the way you dance with me.

I love the way you laugh and your eyes crinkle up in the corners.

I love you.

Happy Birthday.
