Happy birthday, mi amor!


Today is a hard day for many people. The tragedy of the events on this date - and the fact that the media has made franchise out of reminding us - simply overwhelm other considerations. It is doubly difficult for anyone who seeks to find any joy on this date.

Despite the tragedy, there are reasons to celebrate and to find joy. Today was my love's birthday long before it was a day of tragedy. So we are celebrating the fact that she is here with us, in our lives, and she came into this world on this date!

We don't forget, we don't diminish, but it was her day first!
