Birthday
HAPPY 25TH BIRTHDAY
JAQUEZ BYRD
To my amazing boyfriend. From the moment I met you, I knew my life would never be empty again. You bring light, peace, laughter, strength and love to my heart.
I’m happy to fall in love with a man like you. You’re one of a kind and very special to me. Thanks for being the man you are with me and the kids. Every King needs that Queen we can turn to. I’m your spine, I’m that Queen he can turn to. I’m your spine, I’m that Queen. I will always have your back, no matter what. You can always count on me.
A man with dreams needs a woman with vision. Today, is your birthday and I can’t turn up with you, but next year, you will be free baby and we will turn up.
“Free Byrd!” Y. N. B.
Happy 25th Birthday my King! I love you! 2-27-17, NFL.
