Turning 49 feels less like arriving at a destination and more like standing on a ridge—able to look back at how far I’ve come, and forward at how much there still is to discover.
I’ve learned a lot along the way—about patience, resilience, love, and what really matters. But what’s even more meaningful is realizing I’m still learning. Still growing. Still evolving into someone better, wiser, and more grounded than I was before.
Getting here didn’t happen overnight. It took time, effort, mistakes, and moments that shaped me in ways I couldn’t have imagined back then. Every step, whether easy or hard, played a role in building the person I am today.
And I didn’t do it alone. My family and friends have been my foundation—lifting me up, keeping me grounded, and reminding me who I am when I needed it most. I carry a piece of each of you with me, always.
As I step into this next year, I do it with gratitude—for the lessons, the love, and the journey still unfolding.
“Growing up isn’t about getting older—it’s about understanding more, loving deeper, and becoming who you were always meant to be.”
Here’s to 49… and everything still ahead.
It’s this little king’s birthday! 16 years of being the best boy. You turned me and @camthrow from a couple into a family. You have taught us so much about life and love. You are the best big brother to Bogart and Bowie. We love you always, Brando!
Happy 16th birthday, Brando!!!
You know what that means… BIRTHDAY PHOTOSHOOT! Sixteen years of love, personality, road trips, couch hangs, and being the absolute KING of the house. He’s been there through so many chapters of our lives and has made every single one better just by being in it. We love ya, kid.
