Happy, Happy Birthday!

Tomorrow is Craig's 38th birthday. So, in honor of his birthday I thought I would post ten reasons why I'm glad he's my husband.

1. He makes me laugh every single day-even when I'm grumpy and irritated and don't feel like laughing.

2. He helps me to see the big picture of situations, and not get caught up in little insignificant details.

3. The boys ADORE him. He isn't afraid to get down on their level and play and wrestle with them. And really, what three and six year old wouldn't want piggy-back rides upstairs to bed every night? (Or in Alex's case carried upside-down). Ahem.

4. He's a great listener. After 11 years of marriage he's learned to stop trying to fix problems and just listen. I appreciate that so much!

5. He leads a life of integrity personally and in business.

6. He's very good at figuring things out and fixing things around the house. I can't tell you how much money we have saved by Craig doing things himself. Oil changes, rotating tires, replacing doors, putting in a vinyl fencing, etc.etc. He's not afraid to try new things. Now, getting finished with projects, that's another story...(sorry honey)!

7. He took his three year old son to a Bob the Builder show even though he knew he would get lots of harassment at work. More on this in another post, I need to get the pictures uploaded off his phone.

8. He does all of the mowing and grilling. And let's not forget about his fruit cutting talents. (I couldn't resist Craig).

9. He has never, ever, not once complained about putting theragesic on my achy joints, or groaned about the smell. It may not sound like a lot, but it means sooooo much to me!

10. He loves me, and is setting a fine example to our boys of how to treat a wife.

I love you Craig! Happy 38th birthday!
