Happy Birthday Tommy!

I've been sitting here trying to figure out the perfect words to wish  

Tommy a  

Happy Birthday.  

Everything that comes to mind, I imagine him asking me if I'm going to use it in my stand up act.  You see... he teases me that anything I say that I think is funny, actually isn't.  So, he says I should compile all my 'not-funny' lines, write a monologue and then perform it in my very own stand-up act.  Trust me, the only person who would be laughing would be him (an maybe my brother and Shane).

But, I also think I'm having trouble coming up with something because Tommy is 'my person'.  

Yes, he can annoy me.  

Yes, he can make me mad.  

Yes, when I'm tired I say mean things to him that I immediately regret.  

But, he knows me and loves me anyway.

Without him my world would crumble.

Tommy gives me that content, warm-fuzzy, cared about, comfortable feeling by just being near me.  

When he's not there, everything seems a little off.  

Even if I'm gone for the weekend to visit my sister... I miss him.  

How do you put that into words?

So, I'll say this.  

I'd marry you again in a second.

Someone bigger than us brought us together, and I couldn't be happier.

Watching our kids grow up with you seems like the perfect way to spend the next couple decades. 

There is nothing I want more.

On a related topic, I was thinking of using some old pictures for my Stand-up act.

Do you think these would be good ones to share?

To the far right, there is the infamous Mullet-Mustache Tommy.

And this picture captures the Christmas when Tommy begged his mother to send him to China to be trained as a ninja.  He has throwing stars in his hands, which are now somewhere in my house.  

He still loves them.

Love you Tommy!

Happy Birthday!

Forever.
