the day i married todd was the happiest day of my life.the only other day that even nearly reaches this same mark is when i gave birth to ryder. three years ago this month todd and i were sealed in the LDS oakland temple and together with our families and close friends celebrated this most amazing occasion. i love todd so very much and am so grateful for the amazing man he is. he is loving, witty, thoughtful, empathetic, playful, hard working, dedicated, driven, full of life, strong, kind hearted, outgoing, and just amazingly wonderful. i love the husband he is and the father he has become, and i pray daily that ryder can emulate his daddy in every way.
i love you, honey.
five practical, everyday reasons i'm madly in love with todd:
1. he tells me he loves me and how beautiful he thinks i am multiple times daily... and means it.
2. the excitement in his eyes when he walks in the door each night and sees me and ryder... regardless of how his day has gone.
3. his positive support of anything and everything i want to do... including taking dance lessons with me this coming semester!
4. the fact that we have to 'discuss' who gets to do the dishes every night... and the fact that i usually lose this discussion.
5. his determination to be the best father ever... in volunteering to change messy diapers, giving a little boy a bath right before a big test, making dinner so i can spend some extra time with our son, stopping whatever he's doing to read a book with a little man, making ryder giggle like never before, and everything else good you can imagine.

jenny! yay! i found your blog...this is so sweet what you wrote. and scott and i LOVE all the ryder pics...we just die over the one with todd with his arm behind his head and our latest fave is the little man standing in his suit looking dapper with one hand on the wall and giving his best pose. come visit us in new york!
Beautiful wedding pic Jenny! I'm so glad we could help out with your anniversary activities. Send Ryder over to play more often.
Mike only tells me I look beautiful on Sunday. For some reason he seems not as impressed with gym shorts and t-shirts. The nerve.
We of course feel blessed that you are a part of our family now. Todd did a great job finding a wonderful spouse. We love you. Oh, and of course Todd too. He is a great guy. Congrats on 3 years.
