The love of my life, though I've only known him for 11 years.
He has been such a blessing. Not only to me, as his lucky wife, but to my entire family as well.
He is the most caring man I've ever known.
He puts up with me and all my wacky ideas.
He shares in my joys as well as my sorrows.
He loves my daughter, who was 18 when we married and calls him Daddy, because he has been such a good one to her, in the absence of a "real" father.
He loves my son, who has sometimes been a challenge, but has grown and changed into a very good young man.
He loves to fish.
He loves being outdoors.
He loves his family-all of us, both blood and steps.
His Momma and Daddy did a REAL GOOD JOB raising this man!
He calls my children's children, his grand-punkins and he calls this little sweetie (his son's little girl), his button, 'cause she is, as he says, "cute as a button". Her Mom & Dad are expecting a little boy at the end of July - he calls him "Beau" - as in "button & bow"!
I thank the Lord EVERY DAY for bringing him into my life.
We married after I had been a divorced, single Mom for 13 1/2 years. At our wedding, when the preacher asked if anyone had anything to say, he said, "today I consider myself the luckiest man in the world!"
Happy Birthday my darlin'. And may we share many, many, many more!

Kathy, it sounds to me like you are a very lucky woman, but you already know that! That's half the battle, appreciating what you have!
Happy birthday to your Handy Man! I'm very happy for you both, to have found one another.

I haven't read your blog in a few weeks and decided to catch up on it tonight. I wasn't expecting to cry. :) This was a great post. He sure is a wonderful man and I'm so happy he is your husband.
