Happy Birthday to My Favorite Person!

On Wednesday, Ryan turned the big 2-7! I love this man so much. He is my best friend and he is perfect for me. He can always make me laugh and is always in a good mood but he is also so responsible and such a leader. He makes me feel safe, always. I love this man--he is a great husband and loving, doting father. He has a huge heart and is generous and forgiving. He is humble and he makes things happen. I hope he knows just how highly I think of him and just how special of a guy he really is.
Every year, I make his FAVORITE meal: lasagna. I have a recipe that he loves and this year it turned out amazing. We had caesar salad and garlic toast and a homemade ice cream cake for dessert (another tradition is ice cream cake, but this time I made one and it was gorgeous!). He also got some clothes from his family and a laptop. I thought it would be nice for Ryan to get some letters from his family so that when he feels alone he can turn to their words and remember how loved he is. It was so neat to see everyone participate and to see what they had to write. I hope it was something he will appreciate as he gets older, too. Ryan loved having his family here and we had a great time together.
Happy Birthday, Brownie my love!

Happy birthday Ryan! Looks like you did a good job of spoiling him, McCall. That cake looks delish!
