My youthful husband turned 43 this week. He still, as we like to say, is in his "early forties."
From the day we married, he still:
-always opens the door for me
-brings me unexpected flowers
-loves a good deal
-makes me laugh
-listens
-is genuinely kind to all he meets
-loves to be tickled (hence the picture of the treasured birthday gift from his children...tickles)
We made him a scrumptious dinner and carmel turtle brownies for dessert. yum. When we asked him about his birthday wish, amidst the circus happening around the table, he responded, "Well, I would wish for world peace, but I'll settle for peace at the dinner table." :) Amen.
May you have at least 43 more happy, peaceful birthday years ahead, darling.
