twenty-eight

There’s a cool breeze blowing in the air. There’s football on the television. And there is a ton of pumpkin things filling my kitchen cabinet, which means only one thing…

Sarah’s Birthday is Here!

As with past birthday blog posts, I try to illuminate and educate everyone on the fantastic number that is 28. (Sarah loves learning!)

Did you know that 28 is the amount of days it takes to properly cure concrete? Did you know that EVERY month in the year has 28 days? Or perhaps that there are 28 countries that make up the European Union?

Check this out!!

Do you know what 1+2+3+4+5+6+7= YOU GUESSED IT!

Or the sum of the first primes 2+3+5+7+11= NO WAY!

AND a sum of the first non primes 1+4+6+8+9= YEP!  

In fact it is the only number that can do all this! How freakin’ cool is being 28 now?

28 is a fantastic age for so many reasons but it is special to me because it marks a decade of having my Best Friend agree to be more than just a friend. It means a decade of laughing with you as my partner in crime. A decade of passionately loving, fighting, traveling, exploring and heading into uncharted territory with you by my side. I cannot fully express my awe and all encompassing disbelief that you are my wife and I look forward to making your birthday one you will never forget. When will you realize that if you say “it’s not a big deal birthday,” well, I am going to make sure that by the end of the day, you feel like you were the only person on this planet! But to me, that is just how I see you every day.

Happy Birthday Sarah!

Love and Laughter,

Ben
