Rise and shine sweetness, it’s only 40 days till your 40th birthday. In honor of my beautiful wife’s big four-oh happening on December 12th, I have chosen the best gift yet I have given this most precious woman in my life – I am celebrating her in photographs here for the next 40 days. And so it is that on this early Saturday morning, I awoke my birthday girl Caroline, that’s right everyone, this is what my wife looks like before makeup and all the primping that comes with getting old, like her. Get ready, Caroline, for the greatest birthday gift you are likely ever to receive. Big Hugs, Sweety!!!
