Happy Birthday...to me??

No, not to me...to my wonderful HUSBAND! My husband and I have this loooonnnnnggggg history together. We began dating in middle school.  Yes, like 13...We took a few breaks over the years, but ultimately were married and are now writing our love story!

So, yesterday Greg turned 26. (I'm older...don't tell!) I am SO incredibly blessed to have him! {Hence my blog title!} I have never known anyone so determined, so faithful, so committed as Greg. It is sometimes a teeny bit annoying, but mostly just good times!

In honor of him, I gathered a collection of pictures to praise him for all he does for me and in general!!

Here goes....Happy Birthday, baby!

We were married in July 2008. Since that special {ULTRA HOT DAY} in South Georgia, Greg has been committed through it all! Yes, we have been through some mess, but God has brought us right on through and made us a stronger couple!

One month after our wedding, we decided to take on our first baby....Molly! Greg was an AMAZING daddy to our sweet fur baby. {She was so rotten!}

Greg "dates" me even though we've said, "I DO!" We were celebrating our pregnancy!!!! (Valentines Day 2010!)

My rock during labor and delivery....And pregnancy, really. It was a TOUGH job with a sickly wife, but Greg was DA BOMB.com!

God fearing is he! It was so important to both of us that GAB be raised in Godly home. Greg is the head of our home, and I praise the Lord that he finds his strength, guidance, and dependance from above!

He is THE most incredible father I could ever imagine for GAB. I am amazed as I look at my child's eyes light up when his father speaks or enters a room. {It is numbing really...if you're not a mother....JUST WAIT!}

He's hard-working! There's nothing sexier to me than a man that pursues what he wants or needs. I also find it incredibly desirable that he is such a provider.

After weekend long hunting trips, he races home to tuck GAB into bed. Just in time....

He's actually SEEN in public with me! (Okay, so we were in Miami about to board a cruise ship. Embarassing to ride down the road with me, but it was a good time!!!)

Such a hands-on babysitter! NOT....okay, this was suppose to be a positive post, but Greg was in charge for a few hours and when I arrived home, I found this...Really? No clothes in our house boys?

He's such a sport! He was coaxed into a late night rednezvous where I begged him to dance....He is NO dancer, but looked good trying! ;) {Isn't he gorgeous??}

He was an INCREDIBLE Santa this year for GAB. Christmas morning was SO much fun as our child "oohhh and ahhh" ed every thing. Greg was stellar at playing each gift up and patiently waiting as GAB tore a tiny piece at a time.

Occasionally, he will go matchy-matchy. Thanks babe!

The NUMBER 1 reason it's my birthday too....

He gave me THE greatest gift of all! Baby GAB!!

A few other pictures for your viewing pleasures....

I am so blessed because God gave me you!

 

 

Genesis 2:22-24

Then the LORD God made a woman from the rib he had taken out of the man, and he brought her to the man.  The man said, "This is now bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh; she shall be called 'woman, ' for she was taken out of man."  For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and they will become one flesh.
