Happy 31st!
Today is Dan's 31st Birthday so here is my chance to gush about him for a minute. We have been married now for 81/2 years and i am still learning a lot about him. But there are a few things th
at i have known for quite some time. One thing is that he is very unselfish (this took me a little while to fully realize). another thing is that he is not a complainer. Put the man in any situation and he is going to move ahead and make something happen. His coworkers came up with the nickname "freight train", and i interpret this as meaning he is going to go ahead full force and give it 110%, whatever "it" is. But - in keeping with the train analogy- he is no runaway train, the man's brain is working 24-7 and he really thinks about things and stays focused on what is most important (we leave the irrational behavior to me). This all ties in with another of his fascinating traits which is that once he has made up his mind about something there is no swaying him. Take our courtship for example. Once he and i had that "AHA!" moment that yes we should be dating, we are perfect for each other, he never looked back (lucky for me). Once that decision was made there was a driving force pushing us together (see freight train above) and we (or maybe it was just me) were over come with it. It is pretty cool in way. I am blessed that he fell for me. It still amazes me sometimes.

So cute! I think freight train is the lucky one :) LOL! You two are a great couple. I remember the "smitten with Meredith and can't wait to be married" months, and boy was he happier when you were around! Happy Birthday Danny~Boy!
