Aristide Alexander Purdy. Another trip around the sun!! And this one was full of BIG life changes!! You graduated college!! Got your first career job. Moved into your own place. And ALMOST, alllllllllmost became as cool as me. But no worries, you still got time! 🤓 Ari, you’ve been my best friend for years now, since the moment I met you, and I’m still amazed at how much you grow and change every single year. You didn’t even know how to talk when I met you! Not the smartest 0-year-old I guess...But now? You’re a grown man with *some* responsibilities and ALL KINDS of accomplishments. I genuinely couldn’t be more proud of you. I Love you so much it hurts. I miss you like heck everyday and wish we could hang out every week. But alas, my mission to get you to the west coast continues. And in the meantime, I’m so excited for everything coming to you now and in the years ahead. You deserve the world and clichés like this were meant for people like you. You can achieve anything you set your mind to. Let your imagination RUN WILD, and Live the life you have imagined. HAPPY BIRTHDAY ARI!! JORDAN YEAR BABY!!!!!
