Happy Birthday, Jess

Happy Birthday, Jessica Smith!
I should have called you today, but Cory only told me tonight at 1 am. He was withholding information.
I thought of you today. I hung a picture in my workout room with you in it. Made me smile. Must have sensed it was your day.
A lot of good things came out of my years at FLEX, but my friendship with students like you – so much more meaningful as you all evolve into admirable adults, has to top the list. What a kick it is to see the directions you all take as you find your niches in the world.

Hope it was a great day and your fondest wishes came true. And I hope your gift came with a ribbon tied around him – oops, I mean it.

With Love,
Your pen pal forever.
