The love of my life turned 28 yesterday. How are we two years from 30 already?? Is it really possible that our TEN-year high school reunion is this year?
I don't (at least most of the time) take for granted how blessed I am to have this man in my life. He is strong--and I never, ever feel threatened by his strength, only protected. He is wise, when I am so often foolish. He is endlessly patient--a fundamental requirement for being married to me, I am sure.
I often marvel at two things: his brilliance and his good looks :) Steve is so smart--I love his creative engineer mind, always coming up with better ways to do things. I love to have deep conversations with him about all kinds of topics. And he just keeps getting more and more handsome! I thought he was SO hot when we were 18...now I look back at pictures of us then and laugh. He was a little boy then; the man he has become is even better looking!
OK, now that my audience is gagging...In all seriousness, I have so much admiration and respect for my husband. He's a hard worker, a man of integrity, a selfless servant who never complains or loses his temper. He models Christ to me in so many ways, and because of him, I am a better me. It has been my privilege to celebrate the last seven birthdays by his side...it is my prayer that we will get to celebrate many, many more.
Happy birthday, Steve!

Beautiful post. Beautiful picture. Beautiful people.
I'm totally *not* gagging. That's just so darned sweet.
