For weeks now, I have been hoping that we'd get a small miracle and the start of deployment would be delayed just long enough for me to kiss my husband's sweet face on his birthday. I wasn't able to see him on his birthday last year and it was hard to be apart. Well, today is the day and we got our wish!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY SARGE!!
We are so blessed to have had the start of this deployment delayed by a few days due to bad weather, and I am so thankful that as my husband turns 28 today we are able to celebrate together! We actually celebrated over the weekend so he would have some time with his present before he leaves. Tonight when he is done with work for the day, I plan to have his birthday cake made of Twinkies ready for him to enjoy! Last year, I made the same type of cake and took a picture to send in his birthday care package... he told me he was thankful for the thought -- but couldn't stand the thought of all those wasted Twinkies! So I'm sure no Twinkies will go to waste today!
In honor of Sarge's birthday, I put together a list of 28 things I love about him - in no particular order!
28. He is always, always supportive - no matter how crazy, silly or just plain dumb my ideas are.
27. He is positive - always.
26. I can talk to him about anything.
25. When we cuddle we just fit.
24. I love when he stops me wherever we are - usually in the middle of the store - to dance and kiss.
23. I love how he acts like Tigger when you're excited about something.
22. He puts up with my crazy adventures and road trips.
