Happy Birthday Love!  31 years, can you believe it?  You were a great sport about staying in your room while we got things ready.  You were so sweet to read and look at each of the notes from the nieces and nephews.  They were so excited to celebrate your birthday.  You are loved and admired by lots of people!

Thank you for marrying me young so we could grow up together.  I've loved learning, living and being molded with you as we've created our lives together.  You are handsome, fun, a perfect husband and a wonderful father.  After listing 365 reasons why I love you, my heart tells me that one of the top reasons is because you are so patient with me.  I know I am confusing and a demanding person to live with - thank you for alway loving me and helping me through my rough moments.  There is so much I love and admire about you, this last year of entries just skims the surface.  Thank you for being you.  Please be mine forever.

Love, Marinda

I love learning together in the temple.  Today I leared that I need to plant more seeds in our "garden."  I need to add small streams and large mountains. The small things each day will add beauty to our marriage and home.  I promise to listen to you more and support you as you follow our Heavenly Father.  I want to kneel next to you every day to pray and walk beside you every day in life.  I am so blessed that you are my husband, my one and only, I will be more patient, humble and feel my more charity as I serve you.  I know that as I know and ask the Lord will answer and open the door.  Someday we will be together in the presence of the Lord and I cherish that blessing.

Happy Thanksgiving.  I am thankful for runs with you in beautiful Cache Vally.  I am thankful that you play Star Wars with Joey.  I am thankful for your awesome family who makes the best Thanksgiving dinner ever.  I am thankful that you let me enjoy a long T-day turkey digestion coma nap.   I am thankful you are so wonderful at putting the boys to bed.  I am thinkful that you just pick up the guitar and play while we sit and talk with your family.

Hooray!  I get to see you today.  The boys and I are counting down.  I'm sorry that when you're gone my imagination goes wild.  Just don't die and we'll live our dreams together.

I miss you today.  Thanks for working hard so I can vacation with my family.  You would have loved watching your boys ice skate.  Sorry I didn't get to talk to you.  It is hard to go to sleep without hearing your voice.

I am so grateful that you have had good friends throughout your life.  The Gutkes were fun to visit with and it is crazy to think what might have not been if it wasn't for them.
