Happy 20th Birthday, ADELA
Ok so usually, I would take a photo and draw a really cheap looking birthday hat and balloons or something on it but photoshop got deleted off my computer. Instead, let's try something different.
THIS IS A STORY... [it's not very long]...
This is Rosa Adela Rivadeneira:
[I hit the jackpot, right?]
we met, not by chance, but by the will of G-d when she dated my very, very good/ amazing friend/ life partner/ Husband Nicolas Bedo.
[[ seen here:
(lucky me, huh?) ]]
I'm the nosy best friend, looking out for my best guy friend since 10th grade, and I sort of weaseled my way into her life to make sure she met my standards when it came to Nick. I'm protective, what can I say. Strangely enough, she and I ended up being able to keep a conversation going with more than just a "Hi, how are you? k thx bye" type deal.
anyway, it's even more remarkable that after their relationship ended, I found the most amazing friend in this girl, who is now a woman; a beautiful, talented, astounding woman who has been through so much and has come out so strong.
it's weird how the most random events can create the biggest impact in your life. Had it not been for Nick winning her over with his charm and charisma ;], we would have never ended up like this:
She is there for me every day of my life. She is one of my very first thoughts when I wake up and usually the very last voice I hear every night. She understands my pains and my hardships and she cradles me with her words and insight. No matter what happens, she has my back 100% of the time, even if she doesn't agree 100% with what I'm thinking or doing.
She wipes my tears. She causes my smiles. She is the reasons most nights I can say "I'll be okay." Her support, her love, her friendship means everything to me and it has helped me overcome so many obstacles and believe so much in a future; in a life I never believed once existed.
It's cheesy, you know, but she's the little voice of my subconscious, warning me when something just isn't right, the backspace on my keyboard when I'm working on my book and think twice about the way I'm wording something, really, she's the beat in my heart, the faint drumming background to my piano "solo": maybe not always physically there, live and in color, but always some place that's not far from my reach.
I can count on her. And I know without a single doubt in my mind that she loves me unconditionally. And that if I needed anything from her, anything at all, she would give absolutely everything she had to give me that thing, whatever it may be, just to make me happy.
I'm not sure how many people have even read this far down, except for you, my Adela. And though I can't be there right beside you today, making this the greatest birthday to date, you know that March is approaching fast and I will make it up to you.
I feel selfish because today you should be the one receiving all the gifts and feeling like a queen, but that's exactly how I feel. I feel like I have received one of the most amazing gifts of all: you. And with that simplistic thought, I feel like I'm on top of the world.
I love you more than I'll ever be able to express with any words or any type of action. You mean so much to me. I love you, times infinity. I can't imagine my life without you in it. Who would sing Weezy to me on the phone at 2am? Who would keep me safe through "dead time", watching Direct TV with me on the other end of the phone line? Who would I cry to when I felt like I just couldn't take it anymore? What would I have? I don't know, nor do I ever plan to find out.
Now here, hold my baby.
forever and ever, amen.
