Happy Birthday!!!!

LSPoorEeyorick · 06-06-2009, 07:57 AM

I've been behind on doing my birthday anecdotes - I'll catch up eventually - but I definitely would like to do one for my favorite human being on the face of the earth.

The memories with you are more than I can count, after just five years. I can't imagine selecting a needle from an immense memory haystack after fifty.

Some of these are simple memories - you starting our favorite song as we pull onto the highway, or our buckaroo open road ode after we break free of the traffic. Or placing a hedgehog overlord just so on a pool table to cheer us up. Or, out of the blue, saying something that send me into spasms of laughter - maybe it was a shuffling of letters in a word, or maybe it was an answer to a survey question that let the world in on your particular brand of evil genius. Maybe it was a single word as you leaned in to kiss me, our first wedded kiss - a word you knew would break my focus and remind me of our joyful silliness.

Or maybe it's something that seems simple but is actually not. Maybe, when I'm having a hard time moving forward with something, and I'm standing, crying, in the kitchen, and there's no good answer for me, maybe, just maybe, you sweep me off my feet and begin to dance with me, with no music. Maybe you always have the answers to all of the questions I don't even know I'm asking. It always seems you do.

I can't begin to describe what a wonderful person you are, how much you mean to me. How much I am so very grateful to have found you. It's a light - it's the funny feeling down in your heart. It's a llllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll.
