Happy Birthday Sweetheart!

44 years ago today this world became a better place!
A young man entered the world that would change so many peoples lives in so many different ways.

This little boy would eventually grow up and leave South Florida, (without that spiffy jacket) to attend college in Minnesota.
Where 3 weeks into first semester of college he would meet me!
I fell in love with this silly kid who was running for class president, by running with the Ferris Bueller campaign idea of giving everyone a day off!

While not a very focused student ( I may or may not have had something to do with that) He was a very focused man. He knew what he wanted and he went after it with all the gusto in the world!

Within a year he would find a job that would take his talents and make him soar! He has been doing so with the same company for 25 years now!

Within 2 years we would be married.

As my husband he is amazing. The most patient, loving caring man I have ever known!
He loves unconditionally and has been the best earthly example of our Heavenly Father!
As a father to our 3 kids. My husband has been incredible. From poopy diapers to poopy Teenagers he has been a rock! Holding firm to his beliefs and convictions and never wavering!
As the rock of this Bettelli Family he has taught all of us a tremendous amount about Love, Joy, Patience, Kindness, gentleness and self control.

I consider myself the luckiest girl on the planet for being able to be married to this man!
Honey, whatever coffee shop you are reading this from, (and I know you are) I hope and pray they have enough Kleenex's to clean up the mess this is causing at your table.
I loved you from the moment I met you and It has only grown stronger. You are the best thing that has ever happened to me and you have made me who I am today.
Happy Birthday Sweetheart. I love you from the bottom of my heart! You are truly someone to celebrate!
