A break from your regularly scheduled programming

This is a hijack. Please remain calm. As long as nobody tries anything funny, we should be able to hand this blog back to it's original owner within the day. I have an important message to deliver and when I am done, I will quietly retire back to the non-blogging world I came from.

Today is my wife's birthday. It's a special day for an amazing person. You all know this already, but I think it deserves to be broadcast.

McKenzie and Brynn (well if Brynn could talk) will tell you what an amazing Mom she is. She works hard all day everyday to make those girls happy, and they love her for it. Brooke can't walk in the room without Brynn going into smiling convulsions. And McKenzie adores her. There is nothing that makes me smile more than watching Brooke and McKenzie turn the music on loud and dance around the family room. It's hilarious. Especially because McKenzie seems to have inherited her dancing genes from the wrong parent. They adore her, and rightly so. They don't realize the lottery they won getting Brooke as a mom.

Brooke and I have been married for almost 5 years now. I don't want to get too corny here, but I love her more than Sportscenter and beef jerky combined. Seriously. What an amazing girl. She makes me laugh everyday. She is humble and introspective, selfless and thoughtful. I couldn't ask for anything more. She is my everything.

We love you baby, and we hope you have a good day. Thanks for everything you are, and do. You can have your blog back now.

Evan, I check out your blog once in awhile and when I read this one it brought tears to my eyes, (I hope my mascara doesn't smear) Sounds like you have a real prize on your hands.
Late, Janice (Joni Katz mom)
