Happy Birthday, Pilot
I can’t help but think of birthdays a little differently now.
Sure, it’s a great day to celebrate the people you’re close to, but at the same time, I find myself thinking of the nervous anticipation and excitement their parents must have felt. I now know what that feels like, and it’s incredible.
So today, I’m also thinking of my MIL and FIL, who brought this guy into the world:
Who would have thought that the same guy I was swooning over at Starbucks would still be making me swoon 7 years later?
Who’d eventually become my best shenanigan buddy,
husband,
puppy daddy,
and eventually, my birth coach and father to our baby.
(I can’t believe how much Liv has grown since then. That smile…)
Days like today are just a little extra reminder of how lucky I truly am, even though I look around myself and am grateful everyday.

And to my MIL and FIL: you raised one heck of an amazing man.
Happy Birthday Brain/All of the other ridiculous nicknames I have for you/Tom <3

Aww what a sweet post! Happy Birthday Pilot!! I hope you guys have a nice day celebrating. How old is he turning?
Happy Birthday Tom!
It amazes me how your posts like this one literally get me choked up — like I feel it in my throat, my nose gets tingly, and my eyes *almost* water. I think it’s because I relate to you in a lot of ways – and my boyfriend reminds me of the Pilot in terms of his seriously-amazing-guy qualities – and feel just a couple years behind you in terms of marriage and babies, and so I read posts like this and see my likely similar future…and it makes me so happy. 🙂
HBD to the Pilot!
Happy birthday, Pilot!
