Happy birthday, Baby!  Are you really forty?  Yes, you are.

It seems like just the other day when you turned thirty, and I threw a little party for you.  It’s funny to think about that birthday now–how little we knew about each other, how much we had to learn!  Ten birthdays later, we’ve gotten to know each other pretty well, I think.  And I can say for sure, I love who you are.

On your birthday a decade ago, I really didn’t know you.  I had no clue you would be the most amazing person to build my life with, to build a family with, to build a love that would endure.  You’re so good to me, and to our kids.  We all think you’re the greatest.

So happy birthday to the man we love so much.  We miss you and wish you an awesome birthday–even though we know you’ll be hard at work today (just the kind of birthday you like).

Happy birthday, Dadda. We love you!

    Lyssa,
    I laughed all night thinking about it. The funniest part is when she strokes Caleb’s cheek and his nose twitches for a minute before he lets her have it. And how the little Indian boy is so serious through it all.
