Old and not so gray

I'm looking for words to prolong this birthday greeting - just so I can say I at least posted after 2 years. But there's just nothing coming. I gradually lost interest in writing. I've always said that writing was therapy for me but it slowly lost it's purpose the older I got. Life just has this knack of keeping you busy. I used to have so much time to reflect and look back (and sometimes regret), but now it's just work, play, sleep and repeat.

Today probably wasn't any different - but there's just a little something special to it. We didn't do much today - probably should've been away on a vacation - but right now were just at home, relaxing and enjoying ourselves.

In any case - I hope you enjoyed today, including the last minute dinner (unless you read this first). Happy Birthday hun! I don't think I can make all your dreams come true - I've lost that youthful optimism (probably never had it really), but I can make sure we go through this journey together. And when you call, I will always, always be there. 

Love you.

Always.
