A VERY SPECIAL 26.❤️🎂🕊️
Today, my heart is filled with gratitude.
I’m grateful for another birthday. Grateful for my beautiful family and friends. Grateful for Red’s and the incredible people it has brought into my life. Grateful for this community. Grateful for every opportunity, every lesson, every challenge, and every beautiful memory.
Today I turn 26, the same age my older brother, Gustavo, was when he left this world in 2020.
That makes this birthday incredibly special to me.
Six years later, I still think about his incredible smile, his hugs, his laughter, and the light he brought into our lives. Gustavo was our strength, our joy, and such an incredible blessing to our family.
I wish more than anything that I could get one of his hugs today, but I know he’s giving me the biggest one from Heaven. ❤️
So I’m stepping into 26 with an even greater appreciation for life.
I want to dream bigger. Appreciate more. Keep growing. Keep challenging myself. Keep building something beautiful at Red’s. Keep making memories. And keep becoming someone my brother would be proud of.
There is so much life ahead, and I’m incredibly thankful that I get to live it.
Here’s to 26, to every blessing yet to come, and to my beautiful angel Gustavo walking beside me through it all. ❤️🕊️
