In the hustle and bustle of daily life, it’s often the little moments that remind us just how much we mean to our partners. For actress and entrepreneur, Mia Jordan, her husband, Ryan Matthews, captured this sentiment perfectly in a touching birthday message that could make anyone, even the likes of social media stars, green with envy.
This week, Mia turned 36, and Ryan took to Instagram to express his profound love for her in a heartfelt post. “As you drift off to sleep on the eve of your special day, our kids snuggled beside you, I couldn’t resist penning a few words,” he shared. “Every year I say this, but the speed at which time passes never ceases to amaze me.”
Mia and Ryan’s love story began during the filming of a romantic comedy back in 2005. They tied the knot in 2010 and are proud parents to three lovely children: Lily, 9, Emma, 6, and their youngest, Noah, just 8 months old.
Ryan continued in his post, “We have the power to transform ordinary moments into extraordinary memories, yet we must accept that those significant events may feel just like fleeting seconds. It’s a bittersweet realization that while specific memories may fade, the emotions they evoke remain with us. These feelings ultimately shape our identities and influence our futures.”
This simple yet profound reflection on life resonates deeply. Time seems to fly, and before you know it, milestones like anniversaries shift from the first to the tenth, and your little ones start to grow up. In those moments, it’s a blessing to look over and see the same person by your side, still deeply in love.
In a relatable twist, Ryan humorously added, “If I could thank you for one thing on your birthday, it would be for all the wonderful feelings you bring into my life. Here’s to you and another year filled with love and joy!”
As someone who appreciates little acts of love, I can relate to the importance of those unexpected notes. My own partner often leaves sweet reminders around the house, proving that love can be expressed in the simplest of gestures.
