Dear Em,
One of my favorite things about you is your calm presence - you have always exuded a special peace that soothes and comforts. I so value your ability to take things as they come, face challenges head on and remain focused and gentle. I imagine it doesn't always feel that way to you - know that to those of us who are fortunate enough to call you our friend, we admire you deeply for your patience, kindness, laughter, flexibility, poise, gentleness, and deep care for those around you. I know I can always count on real honesty, thoughtfulness and love from you - and this is so rare. Every time we get to catch up in person, if even for a short while, I am so grateful to feel as though we are picking up just where we left off. And that is thanks to your genuineness. I love so many things about you and cannot imagine the world without you. Happy 30th and may God bless you with twice as many years yet!
Hugs and much love,
Kay

Honey, I can write you a nice little note telling you how much I appreciate you and love you...and I'm sure you'll be touched by it. But I've done that before and it just feels insignificant. Plus, I know in the back of your mind you will always have that typical spouse-like feeling of "well, you have to say that, it's my birthday and you are married to me!" So, instead of JUST writing you a letter telling you how I feel about you, I thought I would back it up! These people in this blog are not married to you, and THEY DON'T HAVE TO SAY IT! They love you (not half as much as I do though). Bookmark this blog and read through these truths about you and the impact you've had on people and simply be refreshed. I love you
