Joshua celebrated his 31st birthday on February 25, and I couldn’t be prouder of him. In reflecting on the past year, seeing how far he’s come is incredible. Just last year, he was really struggling with his health, he could barely talk or walk. Now, he’s thriving! He was full of energy for his birthday, running around and trying to chase everyone down for a game of laser tag.
We had a wonderful gathering of friends and family to celebrate him. As his sister, I am proud to see him work so hard to grow and mature. He genuinely tries to make me proud, and I’m so grateful to be his big sister. He has this incredible ability to remind me daily of the strength, love, and happiness that life can bring. No matter what challenges he faces, he always manages to wear a smile and make others laugh.
For his special day, I wanted to shower him with everything he loves—a new Xbox, all his favorite movies, and the highlight of his day: an Amazon gift card from Auntie Shannon. The joy on his face when he opened it was priceless!
Happy birthday, Joshua! I love you so much. You inspire me every day. And a big shoutout to our friend who also had a birthday in February, Scott, the leader of the Krew—happy birthday! Thank you for being such a bright light for the Krew!
