it’s a happy happy
Today is the birthday of my very favorite person ever. I’m fortunate to get to spend my days with him.
Mike and I have been together forever these days. He was still in college when we met, fresh from a semester abroad. He was shy and unsure of himself but wicked funny and smart. I broke several of my own self-imposed dating rules when I went out with him, but I always loved a smart, funny man. It only took a couple of dates before I was hooked.
As great as he was then, he’s better now. Age is Mike’s friend. Today, he’s confident and secure and stronger than he would admit. We tease that I’m what holds our family together, but he’s what holds me together. He is patient and long-suffering (anyone living with me pretty much has that title). He is an amazing father.
And he’s still smart. And wicked funny. And I still really like that in a man.
Happy Birthday, Mike.
