Happy 20th birthday to our eldest son, Jude! πππ It feels like just yesterday he was celebrating his 5th birthday (his first one with us) and we were watching the excitement in his eyes as he experienced his very first birthday party, opening gifts, blowing out his candles and breaking open a piΓ±ata filled with candy. Heβs always had such a joyful and grateful disposition and itβs been such a gift to see him grow into such an incredible young man.π₯Ή We were talking with him via video chat recently about how heβs feeling to be saying goodbye to his teen years and officially stepping into his 20s. Such a big milestone! Heβs still out on his ship so unfortunately we canβt wish him a happy birthday on the exact day but weβre so proud of his willingness to sacrifice and serve others. He recently was given an award in the Navy for going above and beyond whatβs expected of him and honestly weβre not a bit surprised. Heβs kind, thoughtful, courageous, protective and has a humble, quiet strength about him that is so admirable. β€οΈ We love you so much @judesurafel and hope you have a truly wonderful birthday out at sea. Praying that this first year in your 20s is filled with blessings and that you sense how dearly loved you are by so many! Happy happy birthday, Jude the dude! β€οΈππππβ¨
