July 13, 1968

Thirty-seven years ago today in Durant, Oklahoma a little girl was born and named Richelle Lynn Goodwin. I was 23 months old when this happened and obviously I didn't know the impact that this day would have on me.

Fast forward 29 years to a rainy night in a hotel bar (it wasn't as sleazy as it might sound) where these two souls come together and connect over a common interest in Seinfeld.

Today is my wife's birthday and I realize that there isn't anything that I can say or do that would adequately express my love and gratitude for having the opportunity to have her in my life. I only hope she feels loved, valuable, safe and secure.

Happy Birthday Shelley!!
