Missing You

While today is my dad's birthday, it was also my Aunt Shelly's, his older sister. Shelly recently passed away and our family is feeling the loss keenly this season.

I have memories of my dad calling Shell every year on this day, joking with her about how she got the best birthday present ever, him. I know he missed her today, as did all of our family.

Shelly lived a beautiful life, and we'll continue to remember her and honor that fact.

Happy Birthday, Shelly. We love you.
