Happy Birthday, BJ..

Oh, BJ...There is no way I'll ever top this post, so I'm not even going to try.

Nonetheless, I love you, evermore. I am so honored, loved, and humbled that you would choose me... and then stay with me...whoa!  Everyone says marriage is hard, and I guess we've had more than our fair share of struggles to face, but being married to you is still the simplest, most soothing, easy thing I've ever done.  If this is hard, you make it easy.

So without further ado, and in the fashion of my name-sake, and possibly inspired Saturday Night Live character, Mary Katherine Gallagher...

My feelings can best be expressed in a poem by the famous philosopher/songwriter Peter Cetera entitled "Glory of Love" which may or may not have also been the theme song to some 80s Karate Movie...but I digress..

Tonight it's very clear
'Cause we're both lying here
There's so many things I wanna say
I will always love you
I would never leave you alone

Sometimes I just forget
Say things I might regret
It breaks my heart to see you [see me] crying
I don't wanna lose you
I could never make it alone

I am a [wo]man who will fight for your honor
I'll be the hero you're dreaming of
We'll live forever
Knowing together
That we did it all for the glory of love

You keep me standing tall 
You help me through it all
I'm always strong when you're beside me [just roll with this line]
I have always needed you
I could never make it alone

I am the [wo]man who will fight for your honor
[You'll] be the hero
[I've] been dreaming of
We'll live forever
Knowing together that we did it all 
For the glory of love

It's like a knight in shining armor
From a long time ago   [the art in the simplicity of this line makes it my fave, btw]
Just in time I will save the day
Take you to my castle far away

I am the man who will fight for your honor
I'll be the hero that your dreaming of
We're gonna live forever
Knowing together
That we did it all for the glory of love

We'll live forever
Knowing together
That we did it all for the glory of love
We did it all for love

~Peter Cetera

Love, 
Your Beautiful Wife
