How is it that we went from...

THIS...






to THIS...





in just three short years?!? It seems like just yesterday I got this...





Happy birthday, sweet kid! Mama and Daddy love you very, very much! You've brought us so much joy, and we're so proud to be able to call you our son!!

Thanks to That Mother-in-Law...

Today, 37 years ago, you gave birth to the man who would be my husband. You raised him to be a wonderful man, caring, and an excellent housekeeper. Somehow you knew his future wife would fail in the housekeeping area! ;)

So, thank you That Mother-in-Law!! :) Without your son, I would be lost. That Kid wouldn't be around, I wouldn't be able to write about spider killings, and my house would be a huge disgusting mess.

Happy Birthday, honey...I don't know how I got so lucky to be married to such a great guy, but I'm glad I found you. I'm glad that good old Al Gore invented the internet so we could meet. ;) And I love you. A whooooooole lot!!
