Twenty-six is:

  • The number of miles in a marathon rounded down (26 miles and 385 yards)
  • The number of episodes in a television program each year
  • The age at which males can no longer be drafted in the United States
  • The number of red cards and black cards in a normal deck
  • The number of Cantons of Switzerland
  • The largest number of Oscars awarded to one person (Walt Disney)
  • The number of bones in the normal human foot and ankle

But even more tantalizing is the fact that today, friends, my man is 26 years old!






In honor of this momentous occasion in history, I'm assigning every of the 26 alphabet letters a very Harry quality.

B- Blue eyed babe
C- Chef, specializing in all things tasty
D- Dances like Michael Jackson
E- Effortlessly manly
F- Foxy (read: fox-ay)
G- Genuine
H- Humble
I- Incredibly manly
J- Jazzy sense of style (J was hard for me, don't judge- hey! Judge! J!)
K- Keen wit
L- Loves reading for hours on end
M- Manly
N- Next in line to the British throne if something like a billion people in line before him were to abdicate
O- Often is manly
P- Pole-vaulter AND piano master (douple Ps! What what!)
Q- Quick learner- he even sews better than I do
R- Rock climber
S- Singer/songwriter
T- Totally manly
U- Understands women alarmingly well
V- Very manly
W- Wood-working carpentry expert
X- XXVI is 26 in Roman numerals, and he is 26.
Y- Yoga master
Z- Zebra-like sense of survival

Happy birthday to my favorite Harry. In the words of Bob Schneider, "I used up all my good luck the day I ran into you."
