Happy Birthday, Michael!
Do you know how wonderful it is to know, as your mother, that your wife thinks you are such a wonderful husband and father ?!
Wow!
Who knew, 36 years ago, when your dad and I looked into those big blue eyes, what we had in store for our lives! Not just you, but your beautiful wife and 3 (soon to be 4) gorgeous, incredible children!
Happy Birthday! And, thank you for being YOU! And, Jacque, thank you for loving our son!
Love, Mom
(gulp) i wuv MICHAEL!!! HBD big DAWG!
I would like to add that I love the fact that I am his favorite sister-in-law. :)
Jacque:
Every man should be so fortunate to have a spouse that thinks as much of him as you think and feel about Michael. I could have made many of these comments because he is my son. These comments coming from you, his spouse, are not only deserving but also very important and meaningful.
Y'all are such a loving couple and deserve each other. Your relationship shines through to others and more importantly to and through your beautiful children. What a great family to say the least!
