You two are the reason I believe in second dates. Happy birthday, Emma, and save me a seat next time!
Happy Birthday
Emma
a table for two, tonight
Come closer. This is just for you.
I could list a hundred things I love about you, but the truth is simpler than a list. Every good evening I have ends up with you in it. Every plan I make has a chair for you. When the lights go low and everyone else has gone home, you are the one I want still sitting across from me. Happy birthday, Emma. Stay exactly this, and stay close.
always, across this table

The nights that got us here
Everyone at the table
Mom
My Emma. Seeing you loved like this is the only gift I ever wanted. Happiest of birthdays, sweetheart.
Jake
To the guy who plans a candlelight dinner and still orders a side of fries. Never change. Happy birthday, Emma!
Sam
Happy birthday, Emma. May every evening this year be one you want to stay late for.
Make a wish. Mine already came true.
