Today is the 41st birthday I have spent with the most important person in my life!! 

I met my Susie Q on July 3rd, 1977, and I spent her first birthday with her the next year on May 28th, 1978.  Since then, I have been lucky enough to spend every birthday with the love of my life!  She is simply the best thing that has ever happened to me, and the reason I have the life I have today!

She is the most giving, loving person I have ever met, and frankly, most of our friends love the hell out of her and tolerate me because I am part of the deal that comes along with her!!  She is so much better a person than I am.  Frankly, we are not even in the same league, so once again, were it not for her, I wouldn’t have anywhere near the kind of life I have!

I am so blessed (cant really call it lucky…got to figure it’s more like God’s plan) that she said yes when I asked her to marry me.  Love that she is the mother of our 3 kids, Grandmother of our three little darlings, and the lady that keeps me in line every day of my life.

Susie, like most of the folks in our life, I love you and am in awe of your ability to touch folks and to be loved by them.  Thank you for including me and giving me a better life than I could have ever dreamed of!  You are my life!!  I will love you FOREVER!!!
