Happy Birthday to my Soul Mate

Andrew,

Happy birthday my dear. Happy happy birthday. I feel like I should sing to you, and I probably will {or have already}. Like that one time in college when I left you that voicemail. Remember that? Need I remind you how much you LOVE my singing voice. Perhaps, I should relive that moment? Yes?

But in all seriousness, I am so happy to be celebrating YOUR LIFE today. I am sorry that I don't write these letters to you enough. I know that our lives are now so revolved around the kids that we often forget how essential it is to remind one another of how important they truly are.

And you, my dear Andrew, are absolutely the most important person to me. Without you, I would be no where. Without you, I wouldn't have these two beautiful blessings in my life. Without you, I wouldn't know the life that I know today.

We have been through so much these past 7 years. And even more the past 3 years. But there is absolutely no one else that I would want to share these adventures with. No one else that I would want to raise these beautiful children with. No one else that I could imagine laying my head down next to every night knowing that we will one day grow old together. That one day we will have grandchildren. And hopefully live to see our great-grandchildren.

You are such a remarkable man. I know I don't tell you this enough. I have always wondered how and WHY God chose ME to be your wife. How I ever did get so lucky to find a man that believes in love as strongly as I do. Believes in the importance of family the way I do. Believes in the sacrecy of marriage the way I do.

I could go on forever. But I know I don't have to. Because I have the honor of living each day showing you just how much you mean to me.

And that I am truly thankful for.

So happy birthday to you my dear today. To celebrating 26 years of life and 80 more to go. Thank you for being the person that you are and making ME the person that I am.

I love you my heart and soul, my best friend, my soul mate, my companion, husband, and partner.

I love you,
Your one and only wife.
