New Wishes
A handful of wishes pulled from the cabinet this morning. Pick one up — copy, save it to your pinboard, or send it on.
Wishing you the confidence to wear what you love and ignore who doesn't get it.
Happy birthday — may your teachers see you, your siblings respect you, and your dog adore you.
Twelve candles for twelve years of being exactly the right amount of trouble.
May your sixth-grade self look back kindly on this birthday.
Wishing you a year of trying new things and abandoning most of them gracefully.

More from today
Happy 12th — half a high schooler, full of opinions.
May you stay weird, stay kind, and stay reading.
Twelve is for first crushes, first solos, first time you stay up past midnight on purpose.
Wishing you a birthday that lasts the whole weekend.
Happy birthday to the girl who outgrew her shoes and her shyness in the same year.
May twelve be the year your big ideas start to fit.
Brand new and already taking up more room in our hearts than seems mathematically possible.
Welcome, little one — the world has been quieter than you, but only just.
She arrived with the small breath that changed every room she'll ever enter.
Newborn — old enough to have a name, young enough to forgive her parents anything.
Wishing you the kind of nights where her sleeping face does most of the talking.
She's here. The waiting room is closed; the long story has begun.
Welcome to a girl whose first photograph already looks like a memory.
Her tiny yawn just rearranged the priorities of three generations.
May her first week be soft, her first month be slow, her first year be unforgettable.
Newborn girls have a particular gravity — congratulations on falling in.
She's small enough to fit on your forearm and big enough to take over the calendar.
Welcome — the family photos will never be the same and that's the point.
May the first voice she recognizes be the one she trusts forever.
