Happy Birthday Debbie

I am going to take this opportunity to take over Debbie's blog. In doing so, I am likely to embarrass my brother Kerry, so if you are reading here… This would be a good time to put the mouse down and walk away from the computer…

Today is Debbie's birthday. I am sure growing up this is what she dreamed of, being married, having kids, being a mom. Not sure that she dreamed of being married to a person of Chinese descent that grew up in Idaho…:) Not sure she realized how tough it really is being a mom. Did she ever imagine that her six month old would be practicing sleep depravation torture by waking her up every hour and demanding attention. Or that same cute little boy would be allergic to milk, peanuts, and wheat, meaning that she would be forced to survive without peanut M&Ms, or birthday cake, or ice cream?

This is my tribute to my beautiful wife. I know things are tough right now, but you are a wonderful mother and wife. I am very glad that you agreed to marry me and that we have the chance to walk this very interesting road together. Someday we will look back and smile, right now we just have to snatch small victories when we can. I am going to do my best to give you 4 hours of uninterrupted sleep for your birthday… I know right now that is about the best thing you can dream of:)

I love you

Tim
