What's So Great About Ryan - By Amanda



Ryan is amazing - I am continually impressed by him and grateful that I am so lucky to get to be with him forever. Ryan is the kind of person others are drawn to. He is super easy to get along with. You could say there are two types of people in this world - those who love Ryan, and those who don't know him. He is funny, but doesn't have to be the center of attention. He is super smart, but doesn't need to let everyone know it. He is a hard worker, but is happy to do so behind the scenes. He is considerate, honest, peaceful, humble, creative, energetic, motivated, and fun. Ryan is the kind of person that when you are with him you just feel good. He is fairly private but will also open up to those who are close to him. He has always been very supportive of me and helpful to me in my endeavors. He is a great friend and the best husband in the world, and he is a fantastic father. Anyone that sees Abby and Ryan together knows this. There is a very strong bond between them - they adore each other! Ryan's favorite thing to do when he comes home from work is play with Abby. I picked Ryan because he is the best, and am so lucky he picked me back.
