11. She sings along to the radio in the car & doesn't mind if you hear it.
10. She has a great smile & you can't help but smile if you see her smile.
9. She cries watching cheesy movies & television shows & doesn't mind if you see her crying.
8. She doesn't get too mad at me when I hog the radio in the car.
7. She drags me to the beach, even when I pretend I don't really like going to the beach.
6. She is passionate about many things, including her faith.
5. She inspires me to be a better man.
4. She loves people for who they are, not for who she wants them to be.
3. She doesn't have to say she's faithful, yet she's true like ice, like fire. (Okay, I stole that one from somewhere but it fits).
2. She loves me & wants to marry me & puts up with me.
1. She's got that certain something that you can never put into words but you recognize as soon as you are around her & it instantly makes you feel good.
Happy Birthday, Christie, I love you.

Very nice Andrew! Happy Birthday Christie!
This was the best, sweetest birthday present ever!! I hope you have such sweet things to say when we're 80 :) Thank you, I love you!
How thoughtful and caring you are to recognize such lovely things about your fiancee. Every mother hopes to find someone for her daughter like you!
Andrew, I cried when I read this. I don't blog, so I normally don't leave comments, but I am soooo thankful Christie found you and you are going to be a part of our family. That was the best gift you can give someone and you are a blessing as well!!
This is Monday, I'll bet Christie had a nice Saturday birthday especially after reading this.
