halcyon


Melissa’s lucky man here. Today is Melissa’s Birthday, and I wanted to thank all personally for all the support to Melissa these last few days. Melissa, Gaia and I spent the weekend in Carmel-by-the-sea remembering some of our favorite family times with Ashton and quietly celebrating Melissa’s birthday. Ashton loved to run on Carmel beach and then dine on our laps at Casanova’s for dinner. As Melissa mentioned, she received Ashton as a gift the very morning of the day I walked into her life fourteen years ago on Valentines Day.  Ashton has always been our little cupid and I thank her for her arrow to my heart. Happy Birthday to our love Melissa, and Ashton you will always be in our hearts.

    Such a touching post from your dear husband. You are so blessed to have him at your side during this painful loss.

    Gaia looks as precious as an angel in this photograph. Although bittersweet, I hope that you do have a Happy Birthday.

    Hi there sweet family. I am heartbroken for you three. I've been away from the internet for a while and I'll email shortly with more but for now I just want you to know I'm thinking of you and sending birthday wishes (late as they are) but thinking of you none the less. Be well.
