We wear the gear most people run from 🚒. We step into heat, smoke, and chaos when others are trying to escape. It’s what we’ve trained for, what we’ve committed our lives to. But tonight, we’re home early — holding the reason we always come back 🤍.

Three years ago, this little boy changed everything 👶✨. The moment we became parents, every call sounded different 📟. Every alarm carried more weight. Every goodbye at the door lasted a little longer, and every return home mattered more than ever 🤍.

Today, he turns three 🎂🎉. Three years of laughter, scraped knees, bedtime stories, and tiny hands that remind us why courage matters. We’re endlessly grateful that we get to watch him grow 🌱, to be present for these moments that make all the risks worth it.

If you have a moment, please leave him a birthday wish 🎈 or a simple prayer 🙏. We carry many things into the fire — but love is the strongest one of all 🤍🔥.
