My Hubby

Today is my hubby's birthday! I'd like to take a moment and just write down a few of the MANY MANY MANY reasons I love him:

1. He is a Mr. Fix-It. He knows something about everything! Be it electronics, appliances, computers, cars, cribs, etc. etc. etc. The list goes on and on! I love being married to a man of many skills!

2. He makes incredible omlets. Mmmm, if you haven't had one of his omlets, you are totally missing out.

3. He looks hot with AND without facial hair. Yeah, he's an attractive one. And yes, I know I'm lucky!

4. He is an amazing Daddy! I love to watch him with Mercydez. It's so tender. He loves to hold her and snuggle with her. It will be amazing in the next life when he will be able to put her on his shoulders, wrestle with her, and toss her up in the air and catch her again! Nic loves his little girl!

5. He is EXTREMELY service oriented! I have NEVER seen him refuse help, nor have I EVER seen him question a persons need for help. This was one of the first things that made me fall in love with him!

6. He's a nerd-jock! He is sooooo good at EVERY sport he plays! I LOVE to watch him play! He's great at football, basketball, baseball/softball (city league), etc. etc. etc.! ... but give him a computer and he will be entertained for hours! Give him a printer, an IPOD, a digital camera, a camcorder, etc... he'll love it!

7. He is such a hard worker! I'm so grateful that he values, TRULY values, a mother being at home. He is so supportive! He works so hard to provide for Mercydez and me. He truly is a good husband and a good father!

8. He is a fun-loving guy! I often find myself pondering him and I think... he's such a kid at heart! I don't know if he has ever really grown up! He's such a little boy! He loves radio-controlled cars, he loves to wrestle with my brother, he loves to play with kids! He's such a fun kid... I mean, guy!

9. He has a wonderful testimony and he's a worthy Priesthood holder. I don't normally like to expound too much on sacred things because, well, they are sacred. But, this is something I value. I am grateful for a strong man: physically and spiritually.

10. Nic is so patient with me and my crazy emotions. He allows me to be me. In the words of President Hinckley, he allows me to "fly".

I love you Sweetie! I know your little Mercy loves you too! Happy birthday!

PS Moving is chaotic, but we're getting there.
PSS Doesn't Mercydez look soooo cute? She helped Daddy open his birthday present!
