Happy Birthday, Nate!

Let me just say that I think I have the best husband in the world. He cooks for me on days I have to work late, and sometimes on other days just because he enjoys it. He doesn't even use recipes and one time made the crust for chicken pot pie from scratch without even looking in a cookbook. It was the best I've ever had. He buys me flowers. He often comes home with chocolate for me or some other random Nate-like gift for me. He loves me more than he loves himself. He even went to the store on his own to buy a skirt that he knew I wanted! He is handy around the house, too, and can figure just about anything out. He's one of those people that knows a little bit of just about everything. There have been many times that he's blurted out some random piece of trivia. He prays for me every day and tells me he loves me multiple times a day in words and in actions. He's steady enough not to let little things get to him, and isn't easily fazed. But, he's also tender-hearted and not afraid to cry. I love you, Nate! Happy Birthday!

Huzzah! :O)

And Nate, I'm quite happy to add you to the mailing list, if you can figure out a way to get your email address to me. :O)

Happy belated birthday, Nate! I'm sure glad Penny snagged a great guy like you. I forgot (or maybe didn't know) that you shared a birthday with Jill! Definitely a good sign. :-)

Happy late birthday, Nate! Evan and I read Penny's tribute and were reminded of what a great guy you are. Penny is a lucky girl. :-)
