38. You love to say that you are almost 40, and have since you turned... what...I don't know maybe 30!

32. The way you hug me a squeeze me tight



31. I love that you are just a vanilla man

19. That you went to all the doctors visits with all the pregnancies, and you try not to miss the kids appointments now

18. I love that you make all my signs for my consignment sale...
