Ten of the many, many, reasons I love my wife

Sure she’s kind, intelligent, and sexy. But what about the small stuff?

  • She can turn the cars round on our pokey drive without scratching them.
  • She knows the name and resume of every actor and actress in the world, ever.
  • She has never beaten me at chess.
  • She still keeps our old love letters in a box under the bed.
  • She stays up to watch “one episode more”.
  • She likes the clouds and the stars.
  • She doesn’t object other people’s carnivore status.
  • She works incredibly hard, and I am proud of what she’s accomplished.
  • She is able to strike up a pleasant social conversation with anyone on earth.
  • She is the sun around which Amy, Evan and I revolve.

Happy Birthday Kerry. We love you.

(can I get some chickens now?)

    I’ve never beaten you at chess either, yet you don’t proclaim your love for me. On the other hand, I don’t keep your love letters under my bed either, so there’s that.

    But then this isn’t about us now is it?

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY KERRY!

    Thank you everyone, especially Dan xx

    I got some fantastic presents - a video ipod (which I’ve been using for a week or two), a gorgeous handbag and the ‘kids’ bought me season 3 of Battlestar Galactica.

    Also, there are not many husbands who would buy you another man for your birthday, even if it was in cake form. I got a Doctor Who TARDIS birthday cake, complete with David Tennant, although Amy insisted on eating his head.

    And Jeff, the reason he’s never beaten me at chess is because he’s only played me twice - the first time he taught me how to play, the second time we drew (because he knew I was possibly going to win).
