You're still sleeping as I sit here as quietly as I can... You were so tired yesterday that I am doing my best to hold back announcing to you that it is your birthday. You know how enthusiastic I am about birthdays!
Did you know that you often leave me without words? Yes, sometimes it's because we're debating something and you call me out, but in moments like this it is because of how much I love you. And my lack of words isn't because I don't know what adjectives to use, but because sometimes you can't sum up life in a string of lovely words. Because it is in the moments you have chosen to share with me for the rest of our lives. It's how you know my thoughts from one simple look in my eyes. It's how you find all my quirks so cute - the very quirks I used to fear you finding out. It's the way you make the official phone calls because I hate to. It's the way you went to the store at 6 in the morning because I fell asleep the night before whimpering my need for chapstick - and the look on your face when you surprised me with the tube. It's the way you have come to eat salads as often as I have, when I know you'd rather have man food. It's the way you fold the towels just-so because I like a pretty bathroom. It's the way you won't let me fall asleep upset, or when I catch you smiling at me in my sleep before you leave in the morning. It's the good and the bad, but mostly it's the life in between.
I don't know what I'd do if you weren't born! You're the butter to my bread... If I ate bread! ;)
So, today we celebrate how amazing you are.

Happy Birthday, Babe!!! I love you more than you know...more than there are words to be said.

Regan I am a fan of your blog, of your picture, and of your writing. You just brought tears to my eyes with your words for Strom. You are a writer, and a great one. You should consider writing a book, seriously! i would buy it.
Take care,
Wanda :-)
