33

Today is a very very very special day in our house. Today Chris celebrates his 33rd birthday!



33 may not sound like anything special, oh but it is, it is! The 365 days between my sweet hubs 32nd and 33rd birthdays have been life-defining. We have more to celebrate than ever before. More blessings than we can count on our fingers and toes.


What you may or may not know about our birthday boy:


1. He has broken more bones than we can count. He shattered his elbow on our very first date. The rest was history :) He only gave up his love of Rugby when our insurance company threatened to drop him from our plan due to the number of orthopedic surgeries he had undergone.


2. He is flat-footed.


3. He won't eat tomatoes. Or pickles.


4. He sat in the chemo chair at the Cancer Answer for days on end and never ever ever complained. Not even once.


5. He is a crazy dancing fool, but he would never let you know. Ask him to show you his robot. Go on.


6. He is the best Daddy in all the world. He never once pretended not to know how to change a diaper. Or give a bottle. Or give a bath. Or clean the boogies out of Coop's booger-clad nose.


7. He was a baseball umpire. And it wasn't just for Halloween.


8. He loves the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra. And Celtic Women. And River Dance. True story.


9. He was a bouncer in college. He once tossed a kid out of the bar, into the street, straight into a nearby fire hydrant.


10. He is a hero. A real life hero. He has the heart of a champion. The soul of a saint. He is the best husband a girl could ever ask for.


Happy birthday sweet Darlin! We love you to the moon and back and we are so thankful to have you in our lives! You are a rock for our little family, an inspiration to us all...now let's go eat some CAKE!


PS. You know what's super neat? It's his mama's birthday too! HAPPY BIRTHDAY NANA! We love you!!

  2. Well, I knew a few of those things about your sweet hubby. Here's one for ya…my senior year of high school I was in the hospital having surgery and I had a shelf in my room at home that had tons of breakables on there (age dolls, precious moments figurines, etc.) and the shelf fell. Just about everything shattered. Keith and Kevin picked up what they could salvage and Chris glued what he could back together. I still have all those and when I look at them, I think of how sweet it was for him to do that. :) And I remember him being an umpire. I have pictures of him and Keith in their gear. haha
