55 on the 5th


Happy Birthday to my dear husband, Richard! It's kind of like a magic birthday ~ he gets two ~ 5 on the 5th and 55 on the 5th. He is a dear and kind man who loves God and his family. He is generous to a fault and has a gift with words, whether speaking or writing; he is always inspiring.


This is a picture we took in Geneva, Rich is pointing to the work "bijoux" - it's a silly word that Rich and Connor laugh about. Behind him is "schmuck," also a pretty silly word. That's another reason we love Rich ~ his sense of humor. He keeps our family laughing and not taking life too seriously. In fact, he's not above making "poo" jokes to get a laugh from the grandsons!

I love you!

Happy Birthday to a great guy! I agree with everything Janet said. We love your sense of humor and also the ability you have with words. It is nice that you passed that down to Laura, too.
