You know that girl who has it all? Brains, beauty, style, grace, personality, a kick-butt sense of humor, and a heart that has room for everything and everyone? And did I mention she can effortlessly write in a way that just makes you pause and say, "Um, wow?!?!" Well, Martina
is that girl. It's no secret to those lucky enough to be in her life that she's the type of person who makes you want to be better in every facet of life. The ironic part of her birthday is that
she is the gift to those of us who have come to know and love her. Happy birthday to the world's most beautiful, sincere, chic, brainy, hilarious, writerly and loving person I know.
Love you, Martina!
Marissa
