When couples fall in love, they fall in love with the hopes of forever. I fell in love knowing it was forever. My husband, Daniel is the most amazing man I have ever met. He is the rock of our family and an amazing provider. We have had two children in less than two years (they are now 2 1/2 and 1). Throughout both my pregnancies and even now, my husband has done more than his fair share in our family. He is not only the provider, at any given time he is also the cleaner, the cook, the bath giver, the tuck in and story time, and the dog walker. He does it all and does it with ease, when I couldn't. I knew that if he has touched my life this much, then there were other people's lives he touched as well.

He just turned 29. For his birthday, I wanted to do something that he would remember and cherish. I called and emailed all the important people in his life and asked them if they would contribute a story, a letter, or some sort of memory they have shared with him. The response was overwhelming. When I presented him with this book at his surprise dinner, he was completely touched by the words of those who are so close to him. He had no idea the impact he had on these people's lives. He is an amazing husband, father, son, brother, and friend. This book was such a great way for me to help him see that. I know he will keep it forever.
