Happy Birthday


HAPPY BIRTHDAY COURTNEY! Courtney, my wife, is 26 big ones today… we are getting old.
Courtney is the most gracious person I know. She is so content to be behind the scenes and encouraging. Living with me can't be easy. We are always on the go. There is always another event to get ready for. There is always an idea. And yet she still encourages me, dreams with me, and helps me run down those dreams. Courtney is a great listener. She is content to just sit and listen when someone has a problem... she is a great friend.
This birthday brings a new attribute that I love most about my wife. She is an amazing mom. It has been a difficult two years, having two babies. Each day brings about a new challenge. She juggles everything so well. They always have exactly what they need when they need it...she deserves a major award for that!
One of my favorite things to do is to watch her play with Cameron or Carson. She is so in tune with every possible love language... they are all going at the same time. Nice words, hugs, time, gifts, and well everything she does for them is an act of service because they can't do anything. Now don't let her fool you. She is a disciplinarian. She is also quick with punishment. I don't think I have ever known a parent that was as big on love and discipline like she is.
The point of all this... my wife is the most amazing woman on earth. Today is her birthday, but I feel like the lucky one. Every day of my life is better because of her. Well gotta go... I am making cinnamon rolls... that is how big of a day it really is.
