Love Bug’s Fairy Godmother is turning 40 today. She was in her 20s the fateful day we met working together at 20th Century Fox all of those years ago. I was trying to find a photo or two which would depict our friendship. I found hundreds. Literally.

What I see when I look at these photos are happy, smiling people. What I remember is silliness, fun, champagne and adventures. What I know are the times when, behind the smiles, there were hard times for both of us. Times that our friendship helped us through.

Happy birthday to our beautiful friend Karli. You haven’t aged a day since we met. We love you to the moon and back. Infinity.

Here’s to 40 {at least} more … although we may need to be careful jump dancing in another 40 years time!
