One One – One – One One. What a fitting day to celebrate my No. 1 hero, Houston Rivero. Houston is 23 today.
Why is he my No. 1 hero? Because Houston knows how to love. Although strikingly handsome with a wickedly adorable twinkle in his eye, it hasn’t been easy for Houston. Twenty-three years ago his mom was on a helicopter being rushed to a hospital that could care for this baby who came very, very early. As he got older and grew, so did the challenges…but it never stopped him from being patient and enjoying everything he possibly can.
He doesn’t spend his days bringing others down and with a smile and an indescribable warmth, he makes sure he spreads that love around.
There should be more of the type of unconditional love that he gives and inspires from others. And his parents should get a Be the One Go-To Adult Award. Twenty-three years of constant care and support. Shouldn’t people get some sort of parade for that kind of devotion?
So Happy Birthday, Houston. You’re No. 1.
