For the last 19 years you’ve had a place in my heart. We’re quite different people. She’s a deep thinker, considered when it comes to taking action, and loves spending more quality time with the people she’s closest to. I’m frenetic, love the new, whether people or ideas, always chasing with a desperate need to be the center of the universe. I haven’t always been the best partner. Some days, I think we’re both amazed that we’ve made it work. But you’re the best thing that’s ever happened to me. In a life filled with wonder, the greatest adventure has been growing together with you. You keep me grounded when I’m spinning out of orbit. You support me in all the crazy shit I’m always foisting on the world. You inspire me with your talent. You’re the best mother I could have imagined for our boys, who are growing up to be the kind and secure people I always wanted to be myself. Everything I know about love I learned from you. Not a day goes by I don’t thank God for delivering you to me. Christine, I love you forever.
