On this 5th day of May, we celebrate my son Chase turning 16 — and somehow, I’m the one who feels like I got the gift.
You’ve been my daily reminder to be better, move with purpose… and occasionally slow down and actually smell the roses (still working on that part, but you stay on me 😄).
Your love for life, your incredible eye for detail, and the way you express yourself so freely — those are just a few of the many things that make you special. You see the world a little differently… and honestly, it’s a better view.
Today is all about you. The blessing you are to this family. The joy you bring. And the honor I have of being your father.
Happy 16th, Chase.
Keep being you… because like Bruce Wayne says — it’s not who you are underneath, it’s what you do that defines you.
