i am in love...

with this man... 

and how much he loves his keikis...

and how passionate he is about is job (here he is giving a tour of his ship!)

how he never hesitates to get down and dirty with the kids... yes, he is fully laying in the sand!  

how handsome he is.  anytime, but especially in uniform!

how much he enjoys our children.  playing with them, hunting for sea life with them.  entertaining them.  our life is empty without him!

how he is my absolute rock.  and cheerleader.  and best friend.

the father of all three of my children.  and such a great baby catcher!!!

my love.  i am in love with him.  as i write this, it's still his birthday for me.  his birthday passed 9 hours ago for him.  he celebrated by sleeping all night!!  and getting up for watch at 2am today.  he served his country, without complaint, on his birthday.  and this memorial day weekend.  

i cannot imagine a better husband, father, friend, hero.  i am so thankful for him.  i love hearing my kids pray for him (they pray for no rough days, and lots of sleep!).  i love hearing them talk about him.  i am even okay being told that i don't do it as good as daddy.  because i don't.  and i would NEVER want to take his place for them.  i am so glad that they love him, talk about him, and pretend to be him in play.  

david.  thank you for what you do.  thank you for loving me.  and for making my life so much fun!  happy birthday!  now, come home so we can celebrate!!!!
