&

Good
evening
everyone
!
For
those
of
you
who
don
'
t
know
me
,
I
'
m
Shiny
,
and
I
'
ve
had
the
immense
honor
of
being
Ava
'
s
best
friend
since
we
were
coordinating
our
middle
school
braces
and
questionable
fashion
choices
.
Seeing
Ava
and
Lucas
together
today
,
radiating
so
much
joy
,
is
truly
a
dream
come
true
.
Lucas
,
welcome
to
the
family
–
you
'
ve
always
been
part
of
it
,
but
now
it
'
s
official
!
Ava
,
my
dearest
friend
.
You
are
the
most
vibrant
,
compassionate
,
and
ridiculously
organized
person
I
know
.
You
have
a
way
of
making
everyone
around
you
feel
seen
and
cherished
.
You
'
re
fiercely
loyal
,
incredibly
thoughtful
,
and
have
a
laugh
that
can
fill
a
room
and
make
even
the
most
stressful
day
feel
lighter
.
I
'
ve
seen
you
navigate
life
with
grace
,
strength
,
and
an
unwavering
sense
of
optimism
.
And
Lucas
.
From
the
moment
Ava
introduced
us
,
I
knew
you
were
special
.
You
have
this
calm
,
steady
presence
that
perfectly
complements
Ava
’
s
energy
.
You
'
re
kind
,
you
'
re
funny
in
that
dry
,
witty
way
Ava
loves
,
and
most
importantly
,
you
adore
her
.
You
see
her
,
you
support
her
dreams
,
and
you
make
her
happier
than
I
'
ve
ever
seen
anyone
.
It
’
s
truly
wonderful
to
witness
.
I
have
so
many
stories
about
Ava
,
but
there
'
s
one
that
always
makes
me
laugh
and
perfectly
captures
her
spirit
,
and
how
Lucas
fits
in
.
A
few
years
ago
,
Ava
decided
she
wanted
to
bake
a
ridiculously
complicated
multi
-
layered
cake
for
a
friend
'
s
birthday
.
It
involved
tempering
chocolate
,
making
macarons
,
and
a
special
meringue
frosting
.
She
was
meticulously
following
a
recipe
she
found
online
,
but
the
instructions
were
…
let
’
s
just
say
ambiguous
.
That
day
,
amidst
the
flour
and
the
laughter
,
I
saw
how
perfectly
you
two
navigate
challenges
and
celebrate
life
'
s
little
moments
together
.
She
spent
hours
in
the
kitchen
,
covered
in
flour
,
looking
like
a
snowdrift
.
At
one
point
,
she
held
up
a
bowl
of
what
was
supposed
to
be
glossy
ganache
and
asked
me
, "
Does
this
look
like
melted
chocolate
or
did
I
just
make
a
very
expensive
bowl
of
cocoa
water
?"
Lucas
,
bless
him
,
calmly
walked
in
,
surveyed
the
scene
with
a
slight
smile
,
and
said
, "
Ava
,
it
looks
like
you
'
ve
successfully
created
a
chocolate
-
based
craft
project
.
Perhaps
we
should
order
a
backup
cake
?"
Ava
,
instead
of
getting
frustrated
,
just
burst
out
laughing
.
She
ended
up
ordering
a
backup
cake
,
and
we
all
sat
around
eating
her
'
craft
project
'
ganache
with
spoons
,
laughing
until
we
cried
.
Lucas
didn
'
t
just
offer
a
solution
;
he
shared
the
moment
and
the
joy
,
turning
a
potential
disaster
into
a
hilarious
memory
.
That
’
s
the
kind
of
partnership
they
have
–
supportive
,
understanding
,
and
always
finding
the
humor
,
even
when
things
don
'
t
go
exactly
to
plan
.
"
1 / 2
Ava
and
Lucas
,
your
love
story
is
one
of
deep
respect
,
shared
laughter
,
and
genuine
partnership
.
You
bring
out
the
best
in
each
other
,
and
your
relationship
is
an
inspiration
to
us
all
.
May
your
life
together
be
filled
with
as
much
joy
,
adventure
,
and
laughter
as
that
unforgettable
cake
-
making
afternoon
.
May
you
always
find
the
humor
,
support
each
other
through
every
recipe
life
throws
your
way
,
and
never
stop
making
each
other
smile
.
So
please
,
join
me
in
raising
a
glass
.
To
Ava
and
Lucas
!
We
love
you
both
.
