Today is Taylor’s birthday, and this year it happens to fall on Father’s Day, which has made me reflect on both in a completely different way.
Every year on her birthday, I think about everything she has been through, how much she has grown, and the incredible woman, partner, mother, and person she continues to be. This year, I found myself thinking not just about the past year, but about all the little moments that brought us here, the early days, the laughs, the silly memories, the movie nights, the inside jokes, and yes… even the cheesecakes.
Life can be chaotic, and sometimes it feels like we are just doing our best to survive it all, but I’m incredibly grateful to have Taylor by my side through every part of it. She is loved more than words can properly say, and I hope today she feels even a small piece of how much she means to me, to our family, and to this community.
Happy birthday, Taylor. We love you, we appreciate you, and we’re so lucky to celebrate you today.
