Today you are twenty-seven years old! I feel so lucky to be called your wife. You have so many great characteristics that I admire. One of the big ones is how patient you can be. There's many times I've told myself that you have the patience of Job. I think this patience comes from your Christ-like love for others. I am so grateful that I married such a gentle and devoted husband and father. It is one of my favorite things to watch you carry our newborns and smooch our children on the lips. I admire your never ending faith and knowledge of the Gospel. It doesn't matter how tough life gets, your faith never fails. I am grateful for your example and the strength that I get from you. I am so glad that I married a worthy priesthood holder who can bless me when I am sick or in need of comfort. I love getting blessings from you before our children are born, it's such an added strength and assurance. You are also very thoughtful and awesome at surprising me with a clean house. Even after a hard days work you voluntarily whip up the dinner dishes and shine my kitchen sink. It's so great to wake up to a clean kitchen in the morning, thank-you! You are so hardworking and determined. You are juggling so much right now, and you do it so well! I'm so glad I get to call you mine and share this special day with you! The children and I baked you up an old-fashioned chocolate cake to celebrate. I can't wait until you come home from work and I get to kiss those icy cold lips of yours when you first walk in the door. I am looking forward to dinner with you tonight. Happy birthday darling!
