Sweetheart -
You walked in the door today, after an hour of chopping ice and shoveling snow. Hatless, your red hair was curled with perspiration. Your eyes flashed with the pleasure of feeling your own strength. Your cheeks glowed with health and with the rays of the setting sun.
I never saw you, or anyone else, look more beautiful.
Strength, beauty, intelligence, a loving heart - these were the gifts you received at birth and you have built on them to become the radiant woman you are today.
I don't have your strength, nor your intelligence - certainly not your beauty. But I do have a loving heart, which I gave you nearly 21 years ago, and every day since, and today, and forever.
Happy birthday, my Love!
