B is for blonde

(once upon a time)

and brave

(seeing as you have a scary reptile on your shoulder)

B is for beginnings

(with Noah, 2006)

(with Jude, 2009)

B is for beloved

(by your family, and so many others)

B is for bold

(because you have to be to run a marathon. Bold, and a little crazy.)

B is for backyard

(where I still spend much of my time, no matter where you live)

B is for blessing

(which is what you are to me, in more ways than I can count or express)

B is for Beki

and it’s her

B-day today.

Happy Birthday,

my beautiful friend.

Love, Lauren
