Birthdays!

Sunday was my mom's birthday and it also was Ryan's birthday. It has been fun having them have the same birthday. I joke to people that it is the only reason I married him, as I am older than he is. So, if he did not have the same birthday as my mom and was younger than me I would not have married him. Just kidding!

We end up getting a lot of milage out of their birthdays, as we have events with my brother and his wife, his parents, my parents and us. This year was a little shorter than normal, as Ryan had to work in the afternoon. It was sad to see him leave, but I was grateful he got to go to church with us and spend a little of is day with us.

Ryan, thank you for being a great husband and father to us. We appreciate all of your hard work and think you are the best. We hope that you get enough rest and look forward to the days and time that you are home with us.

In our family we have a number of duplicate dates.
  • Ryan and my mom, Shelley have the same birthday (March 8th).
  • Danica, my sister-in-law has the same birthday as my Grannie (mom's mom), which also happens to be Christmas.
  • Eric, my little brother was born on my in-laws' anniversary, which also happens to be our Grandpa Ray's birthday (June 29th).
  • I believe that my future sister-in-law, Megan was born on my parents' anniversary (April 4th).
  • My brother-in-law, Joseph and his fiancee, Megan are getting married on my sister-in-law, Sarah's birthday (August 8th).

We joke that Eric will have to marry someone that has the same birthday as one of our family members and that she will have to be older than him, as Danica and I are both older than our husbands. We will just have to wait and see....we have a few years.

Heidi, just wanted to let you know that we are praying for Levi's health! We know what it is like to be sleep deprived and worried about your son's health, you are NOT alone.
