As you might know, this is the Green Lantern, Blake Lively's husband, and father-to-be Ryan Reynolds.
Today, this talented, hilarious, and beautiful soul turns 38 years old. And on behalf of that celebration, we present to you some of Ryan's ~finest~ moments.
1. When his smirk was so beautiful you felt it all the way deep into your soul:
2. When he stood there in his scruffy glory:
3. And your heart skipped a few beats:
4. When he looked like the world's most beautiful Sherlock Holmes:
5. When his hair was so perfectly coiffed that you wanted to run your hands through it:
6. When he made his wife fill up with laughter:
7. And looked at her in astonishment:
8. And stared longingly into her eyes:
9. When he so gracefully waved to his crowd of admirers like the real gentleman that he is:
10. When he rocked the tight pants/checkered shirt combo of your dreams:
11. When he made a golf ball float in mid-air like a true magician:
12. When he took the time to take selfies with his fans:
13. When he cuddled with this giant sloth and all you wanted to do was curl up in between them forever:
14. When he smiled so sweetly that it made your insides melt:
15. When his skinny ties made you swoon:
16. When his smoldering eyes made you almost forget how to breathe:
17. When he looked like the Williamsburg babe of your dreams:
To sum it up:
God bless this holiday, Oct. 23 — the day Ryan Reynolds came into this world to light up our lives.
Amen.
