Today is my Amazing Husband's 50th birthday. I am 4 years older than he is and am somewhat comforted to have us both in the same decade. Fifty is actually sort of fabulous, or at least it has been for me. I hope it is that, and more, for him.
I try to blog about everyone on their birthday. It's my way of letting them know that I think their birth was a big deal. HUGE deal. Birthdays are just about the most fantastic things to celebrate that I can think of. The day the people we love entered this life is a very important day.
The thing is....for Tom's birthday I am suddenly speechless. What to say; how to celebrate a man who is everything? There doesn't seem to be grand enough, passionate enough words to tell the tale effectively. So, I'm just going to say that 50 years ago in Mexico City, Mexico, a baby boy came into this world who would someday grow up, pack all his worldly belongings in a u-haul and pull it behind his deluxe truck (this is a family joke. That truck was about as deluxe as a manual can opener.) 2000 miles to become the other half of my whole. It is as simple and as complex as that.
Many thanks to his lovely parents for providing me with the love of my life. I can never thank you enough.
Happy birthday, my darling. My heart is yours now and forever. ♥
