I turn 30 years old today. It’s kind of strange turning 30 and having my first child all in the same year (it makes me feel old!). But I am incredibly blessed with a gracious wife, a sweet new daughter, and wonderful friends and family. I praise the Lord for the 30 years he has given me so far, and I look forward to many more to come.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!

Indeed happy birthday!!! You are in your early 30’s now though. The word “early” should help you to feel a little younger. :) Charis and I praise the Lord for you! You are such a blessing to us both no matter your age! We love you VERY much!

Happy Belated Birthday! I just can’t believe you’re 30! Not only because you look 20 something but because I remember the wonderfully protective, sweet, quiet, 14 (?) year old older brother. It’s funny that now 15 years later, you’re playing that same roll, only as a father. You were/are excellent in both capacities. Congrats old man! ;)

I’ll chime in, too. It was great to be able to celebrate your birthday with you. You are a blessing, and always have been, regardless of age.
Here’s to celebrating many more with you!
Love, Dad
