David,

I wish you a wonderful, insouciant day.
(yes, I was trying to impress you by using the
word "insouciant")...

To me, every time you open your mouth and sing is
a gift. Therefore, I receive the best gifts, every day,
just by listening to your music.

On your 26th birthday, I hope you receive the
gifts that bring you the most happiness, or at least
as much happiness as you've brought your fans.

Today I am celebrating YOU: your personality, your
music, your everything else.

Please know you've impacted many, many people in a positive way,
much more than you'll ever know or that we could possibly articulate.
God bless you for that, Mr. Cook!

In gratitude,

~!Karen
