Gather 'round the warm glow of your computer monitor with your spouse and take a few moments to enjoy this blog together. I'll share tales about my glorious adventures as a husband (many of which will be made up). However, guys, there may be a few helpful hints in here of what to do (or not do) that can help you...keep a happy wife.

Down-Right Amazing

When it’s been a really (really, really) long time since writing a blog post, you want it to be about something special.  Not just special, but down-right amazing.  So, today I’m writing about the World Cup.  Did we win?  Or tie? Or not lose so badly? Come to think of it…that’s not really up to the standard of “down-right amazing”.  

What I will write about is The Wife.  Today is her REDACTEDth birthday and she is down-right amazing.  I couldn’t imagine that anyone could love me the way that she does.  There’s no feeling quite like knowing…and not just “knowing”, but “KNOWING-KNOWING”…that the person you love loves you, too, and regardless of happenstance or chance or circumstance that love does not waver.  Plus…she laughs at my jokes.

As a mom, The Wife will stack up with the best of all time.  Cleaver, Huxtable, Brady, Bundy...none have anything on her.  She has molded two outstanding young men through her love, support and prayers.  She’s willing to sacrifice everything for them, but she’s also willing to hold them accountable (even as 20 and 15 year olds).  For boys that age to seek out her advice and her time and her hugs speaks to the strength of the relationships that she still has with them.


The Wife is talented and kind and generous and loyal and considerate to all who know her.  She is a down-right amazing lady.  So much so, in fact, fireworks will be shot in her honor all weekend long.


Happy birthday, dear.  I love you.
