happy birthday erin



To the woman who calls me to be, keeps me true to my word, and loves me through and through: happy birthday Erin. Amazingly enough, I don't know if I have the words to describe how great Erin is right now. Erin is: pure, unbridled motherhood; endearing compassion; all-encompassing love; and relentless beauty.

Due to circumstances beyond our control, she and I have not ever been able to celebrate her birthday properly. Last year she was in serious pre-labor pain and conked out on Tylenol PM. The year before that I was in Phoenix on business. And the year before that we weren't really anything. So we are celebrating in style this year. A four-course wine dinner, hanging out downtown, and staying at the ever-so-lovely eo inn for a night.

Grandma Marsha will be hanging out with Kai for the night. We are both looking forward to one night together, and sleeping in together for once. It really is the little things that make all the difference.

Happy Birthday Erin! Jade has always been the man, but he is a better man because of you. You have turned him into a father. You are a lucky boy, Kai, you have two great people as your parents!
