Happy Birthday

Erica and I have our birthdays back-to-back in September and I want to make hers special.  I wanted to let everyone know how special she is to me.

Wife

Erica is a great wife first off who does anything she can to make sure I'm happy and comfortable.  She puts my wants and needs above her own and I can't ever tell her how much I appreciate that.

Anniversary Date in Pittsburgh
She cooks our food and makes sure we have clean clothes to wear.  I would more than likely not have clean clothes everyday if I was on my own.The time we spend together is very special and I look forward to many more years of dates and laughs and all of our goofiness. 


Mother

Erica is a hard working professional with two jobs.  She works as a Software Engineer and also a Mom of 2 boys.  Both of these jobs come with many challenges and difficulties and Erica excels in both realms.  I love to see her interact with our kids, to teach them and help them grow.  She is patient, understand, and caring which grows a relationship with them that only she could have. 

Happy Birthday

Erica, you are the best thing that has ever happened to me and I want you know know how much I love and appreciate you.  I want to thank God for you and making you the way that he did.  You do so much for our family.  I hope that your birthday is special and that we can share many many more birthdays together.  I love you!

Love,
Rob

Being a doting mother and wife along with everything else you take on is beyond impressive. We're so very blessed to have you sister, aunt! Sending lots of love your way and wishing you nothing but a fabulous day! <3 Kelly, Justin, Ruby & Johnny

  10. List of reasons why you're awesome:

    Your cakes are delicious (particularly the snickerdoodle variety!)
    You're an awesome mom, friend and wife
    You and Rob make cute kids
    You loooooove Jesus!

    That hit the highlights, but obviously doesn't cover everything. Hope you had an awesome birthday!
