Happy birthday Bay!
You're an amazing friend, and I don't think I know the half of how lucky I am to have you as such.
I know life's tough so be tougher. I know it hurts, so don't be afraid to feel. Feeling is what makes us human. Plus, it makes a good story. ;)
I'm praying for you every day, and I hope you birthday (and its following year) is absolutely wonderful, and filled with both God's blessings (and His challenges... we need both to grow)!
