Today Colin and I are thanking our lucky stars that Morgan was born 36 years ago. Of any time to be reflective, this couldn't be more appropriate for oh so many reasons. I look at my husband and my heart feels full. He couldn't be more loving, kind and thoughtful to me... but to see him with our little boy, well it takes on a whole new level of love. I always knew that he would be a wonderful father, but his capacity to love, to play, to be a perfectly balanced parent has surpassed my wildest imagination. He is the dad who will wrestle, but also sit for an hour on the floor reading books, stacking blocks...and not 2 minutes does not go by without a hug, kiss or an "I love you Colie". There is nothing more sweet than witnessing this.
And, the big news is now that #2 is on the way, I am excited to see our family's love continue to grow and expand in every way, shape and form. This pregnancy has been rough, battling nausea and weakness I couldn't have imagined. And through it all, Morgan has been my rock and literally my angel. He has cared for me and supported me for the past 5 weeks and continues to do so- all the while juggling all household chores, and caring for Colin full time. Never has he showed frustration or tiredness. He still pops out of bed at 6:30ish to run with a smile to Colin. Then off to make my breakfast and Colin's...and on to the rest of the daily necessities. And oh yeah, still running a business too.
Happy Birthday to my incredible friend and husband...and to the best father a mama could ever ask for. We appreciate and love you and thank the heavens above you are our family.
Love, G & Colin

It was with such joy that I read about Morgan's unbelievable contributions to the lives of both you and Colin. I think it is rare to find a man who can so effectively parent and be a good husband and bread-winner. I'm so happy that you found this person to share your life with... You are so articulate in your expressions of thanks and appreciation for all that Morgan does. What a wonderful family and home for Colin and baby #2 to grow up in!! Happy Birthday Morgan and much love to all of you--- Zoey
