Today is my 28th birthday.  I’m still a kid.  It’s amazing to me that anyone listens to me at all, to be perfectly honest.

What do husbands want for their birthdays?  I can think of a few things that most guys probably want;

whatever kind of food that’s bad for him & doesn’t usually get to eat, a happy wife, happy kids, a little party, some cake & ice cream, a power tool of some sort, a call from his mother, a day off from chores, a day off of work, co-workers who care, little happy birthday surprises that he would never ask for, a flat screen tv, a dremmel tool, cookies, a drill press, a hug from his kids, those little hand made cards that kids make with macaroni and elmer’s glue…

A little appreciation.  We’re not terribly hard to please.  Even though we don’t ask for it, we all just need a little appreciation.  Thanks, ladies.

Oh, and for those of you who want to wish me a happy birthday, go for it - but if you could do one more thing, it would be greaty appreciated.  Notice the picture of Dick Van Dyke on the right?  It’s there because of the HusbandsandDads.com traffic referral contest.  Do me a favor and click on over, read about the contest, and participate, if you have a website.  We’re giving away free stuff…
