The love that lasts

 Birthdays are a celebration of life. Today, we celebrate you and the life you live. Tina, you are in this moment a power to be reckoned with, with love that is deep within you that I get to witness it every day and for that, I am as grateful as any could be. I see you. I see you for who you are, a loving human being who was silly enough to fall for me. You are a loving, protective, nurturing, and proud momma. A good friend and someone who navigates life with integrity, trust, and love. Inside you, there is a softness that melts me, it's infinite and blinding, and I cannot believe i have managed this, but somehow I have, and I will continue to try to make you laugh, grow, feel loved, and feel appreciated. 

As I'm not always successful at this but I promise never to stop trying.

Tina, you are my love, you are my life and I love you from here to there, wherever that may be.

You're grateful and loving...

Michael
