Today is my husband's birthday.  He's such a wonderful provider and friend, lover and confidante.  His humor tickles me most of the time, and he's incredibly clever.  I'm amazed at his perserverance and faithfulness in running his own business despite incredible daily hoops and landmines he navigates. 

His gift is serving and I'm so blessed by the ways he serves me and our family.  After coming home from work, kissing me and my daughter and then feeding the dogs, his readiness to serve is apparent by his words, "How can I help?"  I've grown accustomed to this, but realize how incredibly blessed I am to have a husband who truly wants to help me in any way he can in the kitchen and around the house.  He never complains about much that I do or don't do, and is always encouraging me in my hobbies and interests.

He's growing in knowledge and wisdom of God's purpose for his life more and more each day, and I'm so proud of him. 

Happy Birthday, Michael!  I love you~
