The man I love just got a little older today. Here are 32 reasons why I love him so:

1. he is the funniest person I have ever met.
2. the way he looks at me when the girls say something funny.
3. the random, useless knowledge he has stored in his brain.
4. the way he makes Canon giggle when they say goodnight.
5. his love for his family.
6. his love for my family.
7. his creativity.
8. how he so wants me to be involved in all his favorite things.
9. he is supportive about me staying home with the girls.
10. he puts up with me.
11. the way he laughs when something is really, really funny.
12. his hands.
13. his awkward social skills
14. his intellect.

22. his love for our dog.
23. that the girls think he is silly and funny.
