She was Made For Me

Well, I finally caught up to the year and opened a Twitter account. So far I can say with a certain degree of certainty that I have no idea what I’m doing. Fear not, however. It can’t be that hard to figure out. On to the main point of this blog. Yesterday was my wonderful wife’s birthday. I would like to take this opportunity to tell you about this amazing woman. She is the person who always believes in me. I could not be writing this right now if she had not backed me in my literary pursuits. She listens when I know I have told her a part of my story a thousand times but still remains interested. She is more than a wife to me. This tough-minded woman is my best friend and companion. When I need to be pumped up because I feel a little deflated, she is there. And when my head swells up too large to fit through the door, she brings me back down to earth. She is roughly nine months younger than me so I always joke with her that God made me and then said, “Hmm. I feel like I forgot something…Oh, that’s right. He’s going to need a wife who can handle him. I had better start working on that right away.” Nine months later, she arrived in the world. And so, to my rock, my foundation, and my inspiration, I wish her a Happy Birthday.
