Like Daddy, Like Daughter

Look, Daddy...we are sooooo much alike!

• We were both served chocolate cake on our first birthdays!

• Everyone says I look just like you and we both know I have your blue eyes.
• My favorite place to go is outside...hot, cold, rain or shine...as long as I can be outside, like you, daddy!

• We both like to get really messy when we play!

• Our birthdays are in opposite seasons, yours in the summer and mine in the winter, but still, we celebrate the same way...with chocolate cake all over our faces, daddy! See, here's proof!

             We are pretty cute together, me and you...





You are my hero.
I am your biggest fan.

Happy Birthday!
I love you, daddy!

BIRTHDAY FOR CHANCHO!

Happy Birthday!! I hope you like the video the girls and I made!

DON'T FORGET TO WEAR YOUR TIGHT PANTS ON THIS ESPECIAL DAY MY FRIEND!

Happy Birthday to You!

Hey David --

Surprise and Happy Birthday!  You have a wonderful wife who worked really hard to put this together for you -- I hope you cherish her always!  Congratulations on your daughter as well!  I hope your family is happy and everything you had prayed for.  It is always nice to see/watch/hear about someone you know moving forward in life and achieving goals they set -- even if they were set a long time ago -- finally coming true and them living and thriving in their achievements.

We have three boys now!  I can't believe how quickly they grow up.  In fact, today is our oldest birthday (5 years old today).  He will be off to K next year -- unless we homeschool.  I found a school last week that will teach him Spanish, Mandarin and English!  I think it would be great for him to learn the languages while so young!  Who really wants to start learning a language when they could be out playing sports as they get older!  The school states in 2 years they are fluent (at their level)!  We are going next week to take a tour and meet other students/teachers.  I love they only have 14 in the K class and their biggest teacher/student ration is 1:17!  What I don't love is the cost :-(

I pray you and Dawn continue to grow together and learn more about each other as your journey grows!  It is so important to pay attention to the little things and not take each other for advantage.

Happy Birthday Dave!!!!!

Another message that came in by email...from my Keli

 

Happy Birthday to a guy that makes my best friend so incredibly happy! Thank you for loving her, cherishing her and treating her like the queen she IS! I've never seen her so joyful and I think you are the reason.

"Strangers are only friends you haven't met yet."

Here is one from a high school classmate you probably haven't seen since high school. The quoted title is from his email that I'll share with you later...

Happy Birthday Dave! Even though we graduated from high school together, I may seem like a total stranger to you at this point since I regretfully have not done as well staying in touch with you as with Caryn.

Unfortunately life has taken a toll on my memory and I can't recall specific interactions or activities with you during our high school "daze". Nevertheless, I'm sure we were great acquaintances back then, and I appreciated the invitation from your kind wife to participate in making this a special birthday for you. I enjoy seeing updates about you and your family, and am certain that under different circumstances, we would have become great friends by now.

So, I wish you the best on this final birthday before you reach the big "4-0", you're a great guy and I hope that today will be a day you fondly remember for many years to come.

Happy Birthday!

Here is an email that came in today with a photo! Happy Birthday from the Geigers...

David,

It isn’t possible that you could be 39 years old.  It seems like only yesterday that our families were enjoying spending holidays together in Sandy, UT.  Thank you for keeping up with us over the years and especially for taking the time to visit us when you were in Kansas City and we lived in St. Charles, MO.  If you ever have the occasion to be in central Florida, please look us up.
