Happy Birthday to you, Neil!

My husband's birthday is in 1 hour and 20 minutes. And I would like to say a few words about him. One thing I really love about Neil is how he loves others. He never shows favoritism--he'll be friends with anyone, no matter how annoying or unpleasant to be around. He will go out of his way, sacrificing his time, money, gas, himself, to help others. He always makes others feel welcomed, wanted, and loved. I've learned a lot from him about what it truly means to love others.

Neil's also taught me a lot about myself. I sincerely believe God has used him to help me grow. By opening flaps and having a lot of patience with me, he has played a huge role in my spiritual and general maturity. And I can never thank him enough for that.

And of course, I cannot thank him near enough for being such a wonderful husband. He makes me feel adored--what an amazing feeling. He's all and more than I want and need in a man, and I am honored to be his wife. I feel cared for, protected, loved.

Neil deserves to have a great day today (or in an hour and 10 minutes), because he is such a great guy, role model, friend, and spouse.

I love you, Neil.
