One Year Older and Wiser Too...Happy Birthday to You!




Most years, I'm not sure if this line is true, but if wisdom comes through experience, chalk some serious points up to my husband. He's in commercial real estate in AZ (100% commission), so this year hasn't been, oh let's say, blissful in his line of work as of late.
But, Tuesday was his birthday and I have to say I have been amazed by him this year. He is strong, optomistic, faithful, and so loving. I know work is tough but each night he comes home, helps me clean, spoils me with compliments and attention, roughhouses with the boys, gets them ready for bed, reads them scriptures and answers at least 22 questions each night. I'm so happy I've been able to spend the last 9 birthdays with him. I can't imagine my life any differently or any better than with him.

You have such a little studmuffin for a husband. And I'm sure Steve would have used that same word to describe him as well! We love Mike. Happy Birthday.
