I've been meaning to put up this post for almost 2 weeks now!! That's right..it's the annual "Talin's birthday of love" post! =) In keeping with tradition, here are the 29 reasons (in no particular order) I'm so in love with the man I'm lucky enough to call my husband.
1. He's the BEST daddy!
2. When I fall asleep on the floor he only asks me to come to bed once and then leaves me alone...I may wake up all sore and ornery but I love that he's content to just let me be me. =)
3.He will tell me if my hair looks ok/my outfit matches/my shoes aren't very cute...I love that he has an opinion and will tell me honestly.
4. He has no problem stepping in to cook dinner.
5. He cleans, picks up, organizes, and never asks me to recognize what he's done...he just does it.
6.His scruffy scruffy beard.
7. He calls me Jen when we're with friends, Jennifer if he's frustrated with me...but my favorite..he calls me Jenny when we're alone together and he just wants to chat.
8.He plays with his son...I mean gets down on the floor, does the same thing over and over and never seems to tire of Ezra's silly faces. =)
9. His smile.
10.The way he smells as he's leaving for work in the morning...it lingers in the house for a few minutes and I still feel like he's there
11. The gentle tone of his voice...so soothing.
12. His willingness to work out ANY problem with hope and optimism!
13. His drive to provide for our family.
14. How happy he gets when we're surrounded by our friends. I love that he is so social and "lights up" in a crowd.
15. His Dad is his best friend, he loves his Mom and he worries about his sisters and their happiness. He's a family man through and through.
16. The way he sings.
17. He walks on the outside of the sidewalk. My dad told me once that I would know if a guy was a gentleman or not depending on if he did this....WITHOUT fail he does this. =)
18. A morning shower is his coffee!! He literally CAN NOT function until the shower has been taken.
19. He's always looking for new things...I can honestly say that I don't think he will ever get stuck in a music/movie/fashion rut...he's always ready for a change.
20. If all of the world's fresh food was destroyed and he had to live on ramen noodles and coke, he'd be a happy man. I know this is a strange thing to love about a man...but I think it's so dang funny that he can eat like a college boy but still look like the thin high school kid I first met.
21. He laughs with my dad.
22. He calls my mom just to chat.
23. He worries about MY sisters and their happiness...like I said...a family man through and through.
24. He believes that I can do ANYTHING.
25. I sometimes catch him just staring at our son...such a sweet look of happiness and awe.
26. He compliments me daily.
27. He has NEVER made fun of the way I feel about animals. His OWN compassion for animals is one of the first reasons I knew I could love him.
28. He cares about our country and the welfare of it's citizens.
29. He's the strength of our family.
I LOVE YOU TALIN WADSWORTH! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!
