After a 2 year hiatus, I thought it would be fun to resume my annual tradition of celebrating my husband on his birthday!
This probably sounds cheesy, but my husband has been my best friend, closest companion and trusted confidant for the past 12 years… and this is how I get to tell the world what a great guy he is! 😉
Dear Binny,
- I love that you are serious about the stuff that matters…
- …and so casual about the ones that aren’t!
- Thank you for keeping me grounded when I feel overwhelmed.
- That you walk in after a long day at work and offer to help in the kitchen. 👨🍳
- The way you explain science stuff to the kids. ⚛️
- That you’ve taught the kids to question how things work. 🛠️
- Your amusement at my inability to question why things work the way they do!
- That time you held the elevator door open for me! 😘
- For being our very own Mr. Incredible! 🦸♂️
- The way you insist you’re the Hulk and not geeky Bruce Banner. 🤓
- Your concern and care when I fall sick… 🤒
- …and the numerous times you ask me, “Are you ok?”
- For training the kids to clean the house. 🏡
- Your commitment…
- …to family,
- …ministry, ⛪️
- …and work. 💻
- That you’ve made travel an integral part of our family culture. 🚗
- For saying yes to Zurich… 🏔️
- …and letting us experience Europe! 🌍
- Your determination to get back on your feet after major injuries. 👟
- The way you breeze through exercises that leave me huffing and puffing. 🏋️♂️
- That you’ll fight to keep the flame alive in our marriage. 🤵❤️👰
- Your innovative ideas for conflict resolution. 🥊
- The garden on our balcony… 🌱
- …and your excitement when flowers bloom. 🌸
- That you’ll make time for your friends…
- …and strive to be available for those in distress.
- For taking the kids out when I need some alone time. 🛋️
- For the pretty earrings you buy me on your travels.
- The way you push me to go out and meet my friends. 👭
- The pure joy on your face when you hear a complicated note in a song. 🎼
- That you let the kids follow their individual interests.
- Your short and sometimes annoying “Hmm”s.
- Your one word feedback comments. 😜
- The way you cover all our bases when we make important decisions.
- That you wait for me to be ok with something before you go ahead with it.
- For buying me my very own smartphone! 📱
For all these and more… I love you, now and always! ❤️
To all the married women out there…
Go ahead, write a note, a text, an email.
