A Birthday Celebration

We celebrated Scott on Friday...HIS birthday!  We started with breakfast at home before school, eggs, bacon and coffee cake. Then he worked all morning and we met him at Chick Fil A for a birthday lunch, he let Max pick that.  Then after school, weightlifting for Drew, basketball for Tommy we celebrated with his favorite meal.  Who can guess?  Pot roast, mashed potatoes, creamed spinach, corn casserole, popovers and his favorite Boston Cream Pie. He does NOT change much or waiver from his favorite things.  He opened his presents, most of them were from Max, not sure how that worked but every time I went to wrap something he claimed it was from him.  Cute...I finally decided to just BUY him a driver for golf.  He has been given a "gift certificate" for a driver at least 4 holidays now but has yet to purchase one.

We are all so blessed by him.  He is an amazing husband and Dad, among a long list of other titles.  We are always his priority and his "why" in all that he does.  We hope he felt extra loved on Friday.  He and Jack headed off before dawn on Saturday to head to Ohio to check in on his parents and to be in Ohio for some testing his Dad has this week.  We are missing them but know that he has been wanting to get there this winter and with the crazy sports stuff we have had it's been hard to do so.

The boys' each wrote him a card or a letter.  Those always means the most.  I love what Max said in his...

"He loves me.
He works.
He likes Speed Racer.
Thanks for not letting my brothers fight me.
He loves Mommy and no you can't kiss her 500 times.
You love the Buckeyes and the Browns.
You are MY BEST DAD!"

Love you so much....
