happy_birthday

Happy birthday Olivia! I hope that you have a wonderful day. I’ve been so blessed by getting to know you and falling in love with you. I hope we get to celebrate many more birthday’s together!
I hope that I got the right Chinese phrase in the image. It’s supposed to be “Happy Birthday” but for all I know, it says “Monkeys eat bananas”. Actually, I recognize the symbol for “Day” (the one that looks like a rectangular window) so maybe it’s “Monkey-Eat-Bananas Day“… Heh…Anyways, …
