Happy 40th Birthday Brian!

To my amazing husband, who took on radical change and this crazy adventure because he feels in his heart that this is what we are being called to do... who embraces more and more who he is and isn't afraid to be counter culture, who says he is excited to be in the here and now even if the number 40 is beside it because he is not afraid of a number or time in life, that there are benefits to each time in life and that he is happy to have reached 40, to have the wealth of experience he has accumulated thus far, who is a wonderful partner to journey with and an involved loving father, who cares about those around him and is so faithful and diligent, even when it hurts-- I love you and Happy, Happy Birthday! May it be one of your best ever. May this year bring such deep fulfillment, identity and purpose to you that you will know beyond a doubt that the Lover has smiled upon you and said well done, my son... May you have many times of rejoicing and victory, rest and inspiration this year. May you be launched into this next season of your life with strength, grace and integrity, taking sure steps into your future, knowing that Love has found a way.

To the next 40 years- cheers!

To ALL my readers, yes that is you-- you are invited to leave well wishes, encouragement, love, "hey have a good day" in the comments for Brian on this MOMENTOUS day!
