Happy Birthday (on Sunday) to My Half Twin

He is deeply empathetic and genuinely cares about people
He’s a super involved father
He understands science and math and the world on a conceptual level
He isn’t afraid to speak up for someone who needs it
He accepts everyone exactly as they are
He is married to his highschool sweetheart
He always says sweet things about her when she isn’t around
He is adventerous
There isn’t a food he won’t try
While visiting somewhere new, he refuses to eat at any restaurant he could go to at home
He’s an excellent cook
He reads to his daughters
He loves his grandparents and communicates with them regularly
He’s calm under pressure
He never went through a “my parents embarrass me” phase
On a group outing at the age of 10, he saved his sack lunch to give to the homeless man we’d passed on the way there
He’s always been my video game buddy
He is super creative
His skills as a D&D DM rival those of any fiction novelist
He is musical
He has a freaky good ear for sounds and tones and can hear things nobody else can hear
For example, if he hears loose change drop on the ground, he can tell you exactly how much it is
He can fix things
His sense of humor cracks me up
He is kind
He has the ability to look beyond the surface level of any given situation
He has a broad perspective of life in general
He loves his family with everything in him
He memorizes random and ridiculous things
He is the best kid ever (except for Jesus)
