not to us

Today, Sarah adds another year to her her tally.  She is 27, today!  She and I have talked about the fact that 27 seems different for some reason.  It's definitively in the late 20's...which is a little sobering.  :)  Oh well...maybe it will prepare us for 30, and we can be excited about it like our friend, Darla!

Anyway, enough about 27.  Sarah is starting a year in her life, and this year is sure to be full of excitement and blessing!  I wanted to use today to tell Sarah why I love her so much.

Dear Sarah,

I love you, because you know how to laugh (which allows you to be married to this crazy guy!).

I love you for your willingness to step in and help anybody whenever they need it!

I love you, because you are a GREAT cake-catcher!

I love you, because you love clean air (and my children.)

I love you, because we make a great lookin' family!  (*snort*)

I love you, because you are irresistably loveable!

I love you, because you are you.  I know this year is going to bring you great blessings!!

I love you!  Happy Birthday, Sarah!
