Mom's 25th Birthday!


Happy Quarter of a Century Babe!

It is very pertinent that your birthday also happens to be the day before Thanksgiving this year because you are what I am most thankful for! I know Sofia and Bella would say the same thing. Especially Bella lately, so much for her being a daddy's girl other than having a lot of things in common with me, because if she needs soothing no matter how long I try it is not going to work. She just has to have her Mommy.

I have the world's best wife and am married to the world's best mother. I know both our mothers are mighty proud to call you their daughter/daughter-in-law. I am grateful this Thanksgiving just to be able to enjoy being home with you all day and to be able to observe you with Sofia and Bella. I am amazed at your tender love and gentle touch with Sofia and Bella and I cherish being able to see you laugh and play with them. We all love Mommy! I know I tickle and make them laugh, but without cheating by tickling I have never seen someone make Sofia and Bella laugh like Mommy can. You have a special touch with them and I am amazed everyday at how much you teach them and how quickly they learn. Thank you for being such a great role model to them and to me.

I seriously have been looking forward to your 25th birthday for well over a month now and am proud of myself at getting an early start. However, every time the night before your birthday I am so excited and so full of love and gratitude for you that I inevitably wish I had bought you the world and think of lists of things I should have done in addition to surprise you.

I know you have touched the lives of many people in the last 25 years, mine most importantly, and on this special birthday please be proud of yourself for the honorable life story you have written so far and for the century yet to come.

Love you babe! Happy 25th Birthday!
