Happy Birthday to Mark!

Today Mark turned 45!

He is strong and smart.

He is unselfish.

He is funny and athletic.

He is a hard worker.

He makes sure his girls (all of us) are safe and cared for.

He always puts our needs (and wants!) ahead of his own.

He always cheers us on.

He is a morning person. I'm not!

He brings me my first cup of coffee almost every morning.

Fixed just the way I like it!

He folds laundry when I desperately need the laundry fairy.

Ditto with the dishwasher fairy!

He can fix most anything.

He makes the best burgers in the world.

He has no problems helping the girls with their homework - especially math!

I could go on and on.

He is wonderful!

Counting today,I have celebrated the past 24 birthdays with Mark!

I can't imagine it any other way. Together, we have grown in so many ways.

As friends, as individuals, as parents, and as followers of Christ.

I can't imagine going through the trials in our life without Mark by my side.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MARK!

I LOVE YOU!
