i write this happy birthday message to lupe from a small island off the coast of belize. it's a lot less foggy than london is right now but we send sunlight to lupe on her birthday today. it's always been so wonderful to have back to back birth days. makes it that much more special to share it with an amazing wonderful friend. so happy birthday lupe! xo pidg
