Happy Birthday Jacob! May your 30s be as eventful as your 20s... good events, I mean.
In honor of my brother, I'd like to share a story:
Jacob once took me along with him, Trent Johnson, and some other friends of his swimming at the spa. I was probably 8 or 9 and was having a hard time keeping up with the 12 or 13 year olds. We had ventured to the deep end and we all were swimming across to the other side. It’s a pretty long distance for just a little guy and I remember everyone being at the far side already while I was still smack in the middle with 30 feet or so left to go. I was so tired I couldn’t get my arms to move. Fearing I might not make it, I called for Jacob. He heard and I vividly remember his instant response to launch from the side of the pool. Before long he reached me and helped me to the edge of the pool. After that he was very careful to keep a close eye on me. He was a good brother.
Thanks for the good times, jake and for being a great example and an awesome guy!
For everyone who's not jake- I made a collage of some of jacob's favorite and most inspiring artists. See how many of them you can identify. If you get them all, I'm sure jacob will appreciate you more :)
