Today is Matt's 36th birthday. I hate that his special day falls on one of my really bad days. I'm stuck in bed with my foggy chemo brain, and he's still waiting on me hand and foot. He's also about to take Reagan to lunch and a movie which makes me happy - there's nothing like a good daddy/daughter day as I know first hand from dates with my own dad.
This post may get a bit mushy, but I'm going to blame that on the chemo too. Matt and I aren't big on public affection, we don't declare our love on each other's Facebook pages, and we make fun of each other at every possible opportunity. Yet this world became a much better place 36 years ago today. Matt is hands down the most wonderful person I've ever met, and I am honored that I get to spend my life with him and raise our children together. I think that our girls are such lucky ladies to have him as their daddy.
He's had just as rough a year as I have, and he's handled everything with his usual calm demeanor and humor. Yes, it's gotten rough at times with the house exploding around us. But at no point has he even hinted that it's a burden on him. He just makes everything in life so much better..even cancer treatments!
Happy Birthday, Matt! I promise next year we'll have an awesome celebration somewhere fun!

When you brought Matt home to meet us for the first time you asked me what I thought. I said to you then "I think he's the real deal". I was right! He is a wonderful man, husband and father. I am so proud he is my son-in-law. Mush, mush, mush, yes, mushy as it is, he's great and we love him! Mama
