Happy Birthday Lauren

Today you turn 26. I had you ten days before my 28th birthday, but I can't remember when you weren't there for me. It's been quite the trip to watch you grow into the woman you have become. Very seldom do you see someone with as much love and passion as you possess. I always knew you would do wonderful things and each year just proves me right. I hope your birthday is a good one and I wish I could be with you in person. Know that you are in my heart always and that I'm very proud of you.
