Happy 30th Birthday! September 15, 2008

 

So cute!

Today is Jon’s 30th birthday. Yup, the world (mostly me) is celebrating 30 fabulous years of Jon. In order to celebrate, I thought I would make a list of 30 things I love about Jon.  Too bad he isn’t 112 because there are more than 30 reasons.

 

1. he gets me (I could technically repeat this for all thirty)
2. he can add really big numbers in his head
3. he loves to travel and see new things
4. he took me to the circus for my birthday last year
5. he gets goose bumps during the national anthem
6. he knows how to fix everything
7. he knows how to cook
8. he scrubs toilets
9. he is reliable
10. he loves our nieces and nephews more than words
11. he is tender
12. he is patient
13. he goes swimming with me even though he doesn’t float
14. he loves my family
15. he helped build our family lodge
16. he holds me when I cry
17. he plays games with me
18. he wins most of the time
19. he has a big heart and loves to serve others
20. he loves his family
21. he does the laundry
22. he understands the words I make up
23. he can reach the high stuff on shelves
24. he is foxy!
25. he is foxy! (so foxy it is worth mentioning twice!)
26. he knows a little bit about everything
27. he knows how to be silly
28. he wishes me “happy birthday time” at 9:28pm
29. he is my favorite person
30. he is going to be an incredible daddy!

 

I look forward to celebrating many more birthdays with him. Here is to a wonderful day and another fabulous year of Jon.  I’m so lucky he is in my life.
