Her day

Today is Charlotte's day.
It's all about her.
The focus of our attention.
Let's celebrate her.

I love the excitement she brings to our family.
I love her adventurous spirit.
I love her magnetic personality.
I love her laugh.
I love that she is our family historian.
I love that she is a communicator.
I love that she is independent and strong, yet weak when I'm around.
I love to talk with her at night after the kids have gone to bed.
I love to take her on dates. (She is intelligent and hot!)
I love to be a part of her life and to see her grow. She is great.

I am thankful she is willing to listen to my counsel.
I am thankful she surrenders herself to be a good mother.
I am thankful she is our children's advocate.
I am thankful she said yes to my proposal.
I am thankful she lets me be her protector.
I am thankful she loves our children.
I am thankful she is a thinker, that she's analytical.
I am thankful she's emotional. I'm thankful for this most of the time.
I am thankful she understands me.
I am thankful we are one.

I want her to know she is loved.
I want her to know she is a blessing.
I want her to know I see Christ in her.
I want her to know I am here.
I want her to know she's a good mother.
I want her to know the kids love her.
I want her to know she's a good cook.
I want her to know she gives good advice.
I want her to know that I trust her.
I want her to know I am praying for her.

You make our lives better.
You are special.
You are one of a kind.
You look more beautiful then ever.
I am thankful for you.
I love you.
Happy Birthday.
