My dad always says to Jay, “Thanks for taming my daughter Sarah.” and Jay and I always crack up because what? taming? As if I was this wild, ferocious beast haha. I was a really good girl growing up thank you very much. π I’m a good girl by myself but he makes me even better and here are some ways.
-Jay has superb credit score and being married to him has made mine better hahaha. I did have a few hundred dollar credit debt(went on my mission and it accumulated which was suppose to have been paid, blah blah blah.) but now I’m way better with my money and my spendings.
-Anyone that knew me well knows that I wasn’t the cleanest person in the world but Jay is a clean freak and he motivates me to be clean and tidy. I actually kinda like cleaning now.
-He is so patient. And it helps me realize how much patience I lack.
-He is the best daddy to our two little girls. They adore him and he makes them laugh and giggle constantly which reminds me to not take any moment for granted and to play games with them more throughout the day instead of just being tired and letting the time go by.
-He never gets mad at me. (Maybe because I never do anything to make him mad). ok that’s a big lie. But nevertheless he doesn’t get mad! And he doesn’t give me the silent treatment like I do to him when I’m mad. That is something I’m working on.
-He doesn’t try to change me. It lets me realize that in order to be happy with marriage and when you’re not satisfied with how your spouse is acting or what he/she doesn’t do or should do more of…you should try to change yourself instead so it doesn’t bother you.
-He also has a mind set of “What can I do to make my wife happy?” Instead of saying, “What can she do to make me more happy?” I know this is an excellent, very Christ-like attribute and his example reminds me to think like this instead.
-He is HOT. K, I don’t know how that makes me a better person but just wanted to throw that out there.
-He is the funniest guy I know and he makes me laugh ’till my stomach hurts everyday. And his sense of humor is rubbing off on me. I’m hilarious.
-He thinks I look most beautiful when I’m not done up, with no make-up, in just jeans and a t-shirt or sweats and hoodies. I guess it’s not that hard to please him right? It makes me focus less on my appearance and be more confident.
-He is pretty much perfect. And just being near him makes me be a better person.
Happy birthday to my husband, my one true love, my soulmate. There is nothing else I love more than you.
