My Lovely, Loving Wife

My wife turned (CENSORED) last week. So I thought it the perfect time to tell everyone how wonderful she is. Kind of a late, extra birthday gift.

Let me start by saying Amy is a wonderful wife and even better mother.
Does she drive me crazy sometimes? Absolutely!!! But that's in the vows, right?

Chemo has been tough on me. More importantly, it's been tough on my family.
I've not been able to play with our four-year-old girl as much as I would like, or bond with our newborn son as much as I would like. I have also not been able to take care of them as much as I would normally be able. Basically, I've been pretty worthless at times, which has put an increased parenting burden on Amy's little shoulders.

But she's been a champ. She has handled caring for Aaron almost entirely by herself, plus a large
chunk of caring for Alex, too. She's stronger than I ever thought she would be, and probably she ever thought she could be.

And she hasn't held my worthlessness against me.(at least not outwardly)
She loved me when I was at my best, and is loving me when I am far from my best. That's what love is all about, I think.

So, happy late (CENSORED) birthday, baby.
See you when I get home.
