T-minus 4....

that's right folks....derek is now 36....t-minus 4 to the big 4-0!!! this is my official shout out of HAPPY BIRTHDAY to the most amazing husband any woman could ask for....not to mention a flippin fantastic dad to his children! derek is the kind of guy who will do anything for his family, friends, coworkers, anyone really! he leaves for work a little late in the morning if he knows the kids want to see him....he comes home from a stressful day at work and plays with his boys....he comes home early so i can go to book club, the gym, dinner, etc.....he spends extra time with the boys on the weekends just so I can have some time off....he reads to our children.....he's involved in their education....he plays basketball....he plays softball....he coaches andrew's tball team....he is an amazing artist.....he's talented.....he constantly tells me he loves me....and all this with a BIG ol smile on his face....well, most of the time!!!!

let me remind you that I met this amazing guy on america online when I was a senior in high school!!! I'm sure when my dad told my sister and I to "just choose one of these guys to chat with" when we had IM's popping up all over the screen, he had no clue I'd someday marry this guy! so much for internet security, huh?!?! thank god my sis and I chose the guy on the other end of "darrylku".....

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BABE....LYM!!!
