O: Dearest Mommy, I hope you know that you are the everyday best especially on your birthday. Looooooove, O.

In the past 32 years, I have had 2 children, been loved and supported by 6 parents, celebrated 7 years of marriage to the best partner anyone could imagine. I have done 28 shows and learned at least one important thing from each one. I have made more friends than I can count, and I can count my dearest of friends on one hand. I have loved and been loved. I am infinitely grateful for that.

we still aren't too old for kissy-face selfies, or if we are we don't care

Today is the 32nd anniversary of my birth, but it no longer strikes me as being just my birthday. I understand now, how deeply I share the day with someone else.

Happy Birthday, mom. Thank you.
