They turned 21 today, two continents apart. We Skyped with both of them. Not much I can say about my daughters that I haven’t already said before: they are the reason I get up every day, they make me a better person, they bring a smile to my face. Basically, they are awesome.
Here’s looking towards the day we can all sit down and legally enjoy a beer . . . only 35 more days to go. Happy birthday, Jordan and Shelby!
Here’s last year’s video for their 20th birthday.

happy birthday to shelby and jordan (and you and dave)! i know better than to click on that video, it got me all teary-eyed last year.
I couldn’t even watch it this summer, and I don’t even get weepy until the very, very end. We talked to both of them (ironically, they now have the same color hair – Shelby was dying hers while we chatted) today, and I can’t wait to head over to see the youngest (and by the oldest a flight at Triumph this Saturday).
Happy birthday to your amazing girls! I hope that they dealt with the birthday separation okay – I know there was a lot of anxiety leading up to today. Cheers to you and Dave for raising two spectacular (and now legal!) women.
Serves me right for not logging on sooner . . . we’re headed to Philly tomorrow to take Jordan out for her first beer in a restaurant with us. Should be fun!
