On this day 34 years ago the creator of the universe made my bride. She is the most wonderful human I have ever met. She loves me unconditionally and cares for my children more than she does herself. She knows me better than anyone on this planet and she accepts me for who I am in spite of all my weaknesses! Abby without you I would be lost. Today we celebrate your birthday but we celebrate my gift day. For I believe that you were created by God for me. You are proof that I have found favor with the Lord. My love for you grows each day and it cannot be quenched. Happy birthday beautiful!

He who finds a wife finds what is good
and receives favor from the Lord. (Proverbs 18:22 NIV)

Many waters cannot quench love;
rivers cannot sweep it away.
If one were to give
all the wealth of one’s house for love,
it would be utterly scorned. (Song of Solomon 8:7 NIV)
