Today is Joe's birthday. I was laughing the other day thinking about how different we are. About fifteen years ago he wrote something to describe himself.
He wrote that he likes to play golf, tennis and volleyball;
listens to jazz;
enjoys French films;
watches baseball; and
likes birdwatching.
I have to laugh thinking about it because:
I can't think of anything worse than running after balls in the hot sun;
I would prefer listening to every single type of music over jazz;
French was one of my majors and I never need to see a depressing French movie again; and
baseball and birdwatching don't exactly bore me to tears, but pretty close.
So what do we have in common? It comes down to values. We come at things from the same viewpoint. It makes life so much easier when you have such important things in common. And...
He loves how I cook.
He is a dedicated worker.
He enjoys cleaning.
He is a great dad and husband.
How lucky am I?

Happy Birthday Joe : )
Happy Birthday Joe!!! Hope you have a wonderful birthday celebration :-)
Happy B-day Joe! Your similarities are much more important that you differences, I think:) And Kevin loves baseball to and it REALLY does bore me to tears, especially when it's on TV and not live.
I just wrote so much in the comment box that I realized it should probably go on my blog rather than your comments!
HB to Joe! :)
