I am blessed that we did and want you to know I will THANK God for you forever.....
1. I will always remember our first date and all that went with that ;) our first kiss:) and your most romantic non-proposal.
2. I will always remember comparing suntans and driving into the ditch.....
3. You have sacrificed alot for us and I don't know that you've even counted the full cost and I am just grateful...don't be afraid to count that cost.
4. You are full of surprises and having benefitted from alot of them can't wait to watch others be surprised by you and what you do.
5. You are becoming more and more unSILENT and watching you find your voice has been amazing.
6. I still get a thrill when I see you in an engine what you do is so cool and there is no way a monkey could run an engine, NO WAY. You sell yourself short in many areas and this is one. :)
7. I also love to watch you ride either dirt or street bikes. I remember loving watching you operate 'iron' .... I think I just love to watch you...
8. I love to watch you peck out emails on the computer. I love how much thot goes into what you write, even tho as soon as you are done you cuss out the computer and swear you will never write another one!
9. Watching you with your son and son in law and the reaction of their wives to those interaction, you are a great mentor and becoming even better as you find your voice and I don't mean volume......see, I do just love to watch you....
10. There is something about you older that is just so damn attractive, could be looks... but could just be the way you are, the things He is doing in your heart. There is a kindness to you that while always there, is more enhanced and evident with age.
11. I really do love hearing your jokes.....really :)
12. Watching you learn to cook has been FUN. You would always bake, but now this cooking thing is extremely ATTRACTIVE....
13. You are definitely fun to grow older with, I firmly believe we will fight getting old and yet face the inevitability of growing older and that I get to do it with you is an incredible blessing.
14. Watching you with the Grandkids is beyond cute , you play with them in an amazing and super attractive way. (if you haven't caught it yet I also find you incredibly sexy and attractive)
15. There is no one more fun to travel the United States with. Your sense of adventure is staggering and that we get to travel on 2 wheels is amazing and the way you serve me on vacation (especially last year w/ a BROKE ARM) blew me away..... I believe God is taking us even further on a journey towards living in RISK and can't wait to see where THAT leads you.
16. You are filled w/compassion and empathy and the more Christ gets your heart the more He reveals that to others. Now the dilemma is I always knew it and NOW everyone is learning it and I have to learn more and more to share.
17. Just so you don't get a big head you have really ugly toes....just sayin :)
18. There is a certain hug you give that I hope noone ever gets but me...you know the one I am talking about. Selfish ...??....maybe
19. Sitting with you in the mornings reading and then sharing what we got from the reading is ...may be the biggest blessing of my life. I really do think I place it that high on the lists of blessings in my life. I pray and I know you do too, that our children find this same joy with their spouses and would love to see IF it were possible with children...I don't know, I do know what a blessing THAT time is to me and I am grateful.
20. Again, just so your head don't explode you DO have really ugly toes!
21. When you get all geared up for motorcycling have I already mentioned how attractive you are in that black?!!
22. When I see Emma or Gabes and now Millies face light up on Sunday morning when they see you, I get to see you through their eyes and THAT is wayyy cool. You are a very loving Papa.
23. Watching you struggle with whether or not to step away from Sound Team Leadership and doing it in a way that empowers another and then maybe to step into Coaching has been inspiring. You have sought Him in the decision and listened carefully for guidance I am excited to see where HE takes you.
24. Thinking about you marching up a 14r in June with your guys makes me very excited for them and you. I think I would keep you to myself if I could, but sharing you with them is very exciting. ...dang I AM selfish....
25. I wonder now why we ever had kids so early. I didn't know then what great company you are, I am sorry for so many years looking beyond who you were for something MORE. We both know we didn't know then what we know now and I guess I am just so very GRATEFUL we DO know it now. You know I wouldn't trade anything for the kids we have, just sayin I maybe wouldn't have been in such a hurry.....we could have 'practiced' more.
26. You never cease to amaze me with your wisdom and ability to speak to the heart of a matter. Probably grown as you have discovered your voice and that is so attractive. That you don't shrink back from speaking your heart, your gut maybe, but never your heart.
27. Your love of family and loyalty to them is another of your amazing traits. Loyalty and yet you hold us all so loosely as to feel incredibly free and loved.
28. There is nothing about you unattractive except your toes.
29. This new trait/quality of yours that I have labeled 'diffusal' is very intriguing use it wisely...:)
30. When we got married I don't know that we knew how to BE MARRIED Thank You for learning how together and not giving up....you taught me alot about perseverance .
31. I am armor bearer to your Jonathon 1 Samuel 14: 7 "Do all that you have in mind. Go ahead; I am with you heart and soul."
32. You are a man after God's own heart and I am blessed to share the pursuit.
