Happy Birthday to My Hubby!

A very special "Happy Birthday" to my fifth grade crush and now my husband...

More than a catbird hates a cat,

Or a criminal hates a clue,

Or the Iranians hate the United States,

That's how much I love you.

I love you more than a duck can swim,

And more than a grapefruit squirts,

I love you more than a gin rummy is a bore,

And more than a toothache hurts.

As a shipwrecked sailor hates the sea,

Or a juggler hates a shove,

As a hostess detests unexpected guests,

That's how much you I love.

I love you more than a wasp can sting,

And more than the subway jerks,

I love you as much as a beggar needs a crutch,

And more than a hangnail irks.

I swear to you by the stars above,

And below, if such there be,

As the High Court loathes perjurious oathes,

That's how you're loved by me.

Today's a very special day

Here's a Happy Birthday wish to you

This comes with deepest fondest love

From your wife and best friend too!

You know I love you

And you must know too

That my happiest moments

Are those spent with you

For when we're together

Or when we're apart

You're first in my thoughts

And first in my heart!

Love you Son hon

Happy Birthday!

I find myself rushing to get this post done before midnight so it's officially posted on today's date! Ever have days like that? Ever have weeks like that I should say? Rush, rush, rush...

Just want to wish Daddy a very Happy Birthday today! It was a very busy day for all of us and with church in the evening, we could not celebrate. Well, we did manage to go to Wendy's for dinner and celebrated by sharing frosties! But, a little party is planned for this Friday with our families and we're looking forward to it!

Happy Birthday!

Love,

Mommy, Luke & Zach

4 years to 4 ever

Today marks our 4 year anniversary! It doesn't seem like 4 years has gone by. The Lord has been more than good to us and I just want to praise Him for getting us this far! He has blessed us abundantly and we are so thankful to Him!

I went perusing through tons of folders of pics on my computer last night and found some to share. I went all the way back to 2003 when we first started dating, which seems ages ago. I was laughing and crying, looking at pictures that reminded me of so many events in our lives. We have had good times, bad times, trying times, very happy times but no matter what "times" we were going through, we went through them together. I am so thankful for Sonny and the husband and leader he has been for me and our family!

Dear Sonny,

Can you believe it? Four years?!!

Happy Anniversary, Honey!

I want to remind you how thankful I am for you, what a wonderful husband you are, what a fun daddy you are to our boys and a good leader and example for us! You are the best book reader I've seen in a long time (you gotta hear him read "Thomas the Train" books!), you can just about fix anything and you are a good centipede and spider killer! You are very special to me and I love you with all of my heart!

I also want to remind you how good God has been to us and all that He's gotten us through! We're 4 down and forever to go!

I love you,

Mary
