Thirty and Fabulous!

Maybe a better title would be: Thirty and Masculine.  Or: Thirty and Really Cool.  I am writing it, though, so I get to pick!

Today my man turns thirty!  So, to celebrate, I thought I would share thirty things (in no particular order) that I think make him fabulous (or masculine...or really cool...either way).

1. He chose me! (This alone makes him pretty fabulous! I could stop here, but I'll go on!)
2. He chose Christ! (Ok...in truth, this is better than #1!)
3. He loves to have fun.
4. He does all the yard work.  I've never mowed a yard in all our years of marriage.  Rock Star.
5. He sets a wonderful example for our boys on how to be a man.
6. He also acts like a four-year-old really well, you know, to relate with them better, and all! ;)
7. He is a great teacher of sports.
8. He is quick to forgive.
9. He is extremely thorough.
10. He is never in a rush and really enjoys life.
11. He rarely holds a grudge.
12. He loves to know what makes things work.
13. He is a super-smart nerdy genius hiding behind his rap music.
14. He doesn't really like rap music. :)
15. The man can rock a guitar and pick up a song just by listening to it.
16. He loves me (oh, did I already mention that one...my bad).
17. He has a memory unlike anyone I've ever seen (except maybe his mom and sister).
18. He loves adventure.
19. He can be spontaneous.
20. He laughs at everything...loudly...in quiet places...without shame!
21. He is head over heels in love with his daughter. 
22. He doesn't mind that I don't cook very well. (or doesn't say that he does any way...just as good!)
23. He likes to cook. (win-win, baby)
24. He doesn't worry about what other people think of him.
25. He enjoys providing for our family.
26. He knows how to relax.
27. He can calm me down when I get in a tizzy. (the very few times it has ever happened, of course. *ahem*)
28. The day my mom died, he told me to be a daughter and sister first, and a wife and mother second. 
29. He smells good.
30. He is flexible (not physically so much...more so with the meta-physical issues!)

Happy birthday, love!  We hope you enjoy your day, and feel loved!  Thirty is really not so bad....so I hear!
