my seej, way more than ten kinds of awesome

happy birthday to my favorite person ever!

please skip this next part if you are not him, his mom, his sisters, my mom, grandmother, you bore or dry heave easily, thank you

the short list of my faves about him, gotta whip him up a homemade birthday cheesecake now!

1. he's kind
he really really cares about people and feelings. he treats his workmen, secretaries and our house help with respect and friendship. he has a big, soft and kind heart toward everyone. he always tells us how much he loves us. he calls his mom 'angel mother.'
2. he's spiritual
at times he's definitely carried me. he has a quiet spirituality and devotion that permeates all he is and does. i think his strong testimony is one of the things that makes him such a happy and kind person. he blesses our home with his faith, his strength and power in the priesthood.
3. he's generous
his new favorite phrase to say is "what my bebe wants, my bebe gets." it's kind of kidding, kind of serious. he tells me this whenever i say i want/need something. he is generous beyond belief, never complains, and is supportive about expenses and shopping. this is a wow if you know me.
4. he's fit
he likes to work out and is enthusiastic about green smoothies, salads for dinner, cleanses, etc. . he cares about being healthy.
5. he's happy
all the time. seriously. i think he's been in a bad mood maybe three times since i've known him. he's the most cheerful person i know!
6. he's successful
he works hard and is always forward thinking to provide the best life for our family. we have a very very charmed life thanks to him!
7. he's extremely good looking
lol, not just in an 'i'm married to him so i have to think he's hot but nobody else does' kind of way, but in a 'people stare at him in public and mistake him for a celebrity he's so good looking' kind of way.
8. he's funny.
he's funny. he's engaging. he's fun to be around.
9. he's charismatic.
people just love him and want to be around him. my mom calls them 'Christian groupies.' he's a person that people just like. he has manners, is old-fashioned, and has this endearing gentlemanly way with grandmothers.
10. he's a dedicated father.
he gets down and plays with our babies on a daily basis. he makes jokes and gives them lots of hugs and kisses. he's patient with them. he has a special way of teaching them through stories. he relates to their struggles and joys. he loves to be around them.

my mom says she prayed from the day i was born that i would have a dream husband. she takes full credit for mine.

everyday but especially on this day he was born, my heart is thankful
for him,
his mother, who made him the man he is;
and mine, who prayed him to me!

my love you seejie! happy thirty-three!!
