Today is my husband Jon’s birthday.  It falls at a particularly bad time this year, as we have both been so busy (he with schoolwork, me with fundraising) that we haven’t had the chance to even plan a celebration. Jon always makes my birthdays very special, so I’m feeling sad that I can’t do that for him today. He has barely slept in the past few days. He’s up working on his homework assignments and trying to help me with the overwhelming task of the garage sale I had this weekend (more about that later)

Jon- the card says it all, but I want to add this:  Meeting you was one of the most wonderful things that has ever happened to me. I don’t know how I got so lucky to find you way over there in England. I’d be lost without you now and I feel like we are two halves of a whole. Me with my over-the-top sometimes unrealistic plans…you with your steady, careful ways. You keep me going every day. Thank you for being there for me, even when it’s nearly impossible for you to do it.

I love you with all of my heart.

Happy Birthday Sweetheart.
