Every birthday she starts to feel old and heaven forbid she see a wrinkle. But she's prettier than ever, surgery free, and her daily running has kept the body tight. Every day is my birthday when you have a wife that looks like her. And she doesn't even read this blog. Now on to the names and the daily quote.
