To My Husband on his 32nd birthday!

I seem to have started a tradition where I write a post for my husband on his birthday!
{Read another HERE }

So here is this years and to another year of life to the man I love.



Recently I have told a few people about our story and I suppose if you didn't know my husband you might question if our marriage would be very strong or healthy because we got together so fast.

{Read our story HERE}

That is not the case, and I am so thankful for this man in my life.



As we round the end in the year towards our 4th anniversary I am so glad he chose me and I chose him.

As I have written many times before, he is exactly what I never knew I always wanted.

I have thought that we really need to honor the good men that many of us have in our lives. In a world where we hear about men who leave their families, refuse to offer care financially, spiritually or emotionally and so many of us have been blessed with awesome men.

They are out there, they do exist, and I am so thankful for mine.


As you may have been able to tell from some of my posts, 
I take things to the heart, think too much, over analyze, am a little intense and little feisty.


This is why I did not know until I met and married my husand what an opposite to me I would really need.

He laughs at pretty much everything, and doesn't take that much seriously.
He likes when I get intense when many would think it was melodramatic
{I think He finds it entertaining}
 

He loves to love me and take care of me.
He is so giving and selfless.
He works so hard all day 
{as in leaves at 6am and many times doesn't get home till 7:30-8:00 PM}
and still will play with Ashton when he gets home.


He always puts his family first.
So willing to learn and grow and change and
is one of the most humble men I have ever met.


He not only wants to love and help our son grow to know Jesus, 
but also has a heart for kids who have no dads.


People underestimate him, and he likes it like that.

He takes the whole 
"Humble yourself before the Lord and He will left you up in time"
literally.



being married to him has made me a better person.
His faithfulness, steadiness and loyalty bless me daily.



Babe,
Happy 32nd birthday!
{I know I forgot how old we both were last night, ha ha}
I am so so glad the Lord brought you into my life. 
He clearly knew just what He was doing.
You have loved me in a way I never knew was possible and I am so grateful that my son has you as a father. 
You are so loving and giving, always.
Thank you for how hard you work for us. 
Thank you for caring for us not only financially but emotionally.
Thank you for never being impatient.
Thank you for being giving even
 to the ends of what you have.
{sleep, money, tickles, time}
Thank you for being so light hearted and loving to laugh.
{I think if anyone wants to feel really funny they should hang out with us}
Thank you for caring about my drama, listening, and loving me.
You are such a good man, so faithful and I know God sees when others are quick to dismiss you.
I see too, I am so proud of you and proud to call you my husband.

I love you, I hope you have a great birthday!
