Happy Birthday, DH!

Happy Birthday, my amazing, wonderful hubby. I'm sorry I'm sitting in a hotel room instead of showering you with gifts and celebrating your birthday.

You are the most amazing man I have ever met and I'm so proud to be your wife.

I'm also amazed that your mother gave birth to the biggest baby EVER.

I'm so glad that your sartorial choices have moved on from blue hair and the Sex Pistols. On second thought, I kinda like you as a bad boy. Meyow!

I'm so impressed with your brilliance and education. You could have taken the easy way out and stopped your PhD but you persevered. I'm so proud that you did. (And you know my mom loves talking about her "Doctor" SIL.)

I love your sense of humour and that you understand the innate hilarity of naming a moss dog "J.Lo."

I love that you are just as comfortable schmoozing execs as you are hanging out at the corner bar.

I thank you for accepting the preppiness that goes along with me and my family. I know horses aren't your thing but I love them and you humor me. And you look amazing in that hat!

I think you're an amazing snowboarder and I love watching how excited you are whenever it snows. I promise we'll make it up to Big Bear for lots of long weekends this winter!

I love that you charmed the pants off of my friends. I've never had to worry one second about leaving you alone with them - you fit in perfectly with our group. And that is a difficult thing, I assure you.

I don't know if you remember or not but this is the first photo I ever saw of you, that night we first "met" online. I thought you were so cute. Hee!

I admire your wrapping skills. Truly, one of the best wrappers, ever. And you totally threw me off the scent of a little blue box by giving me that snowboard.

Your proposal was one of the greatest moments of my life. I also love that you drank so much champagne to prepare that you're a bit snookered in our only photo of that night.

Here's to you, my amazing husband and best friend. You are the greatest thing that has ever happened to me and I love you more than I can say.

Cheers.
