“Today is a special day for a very special person,” Russell wrote to wish his wife a Happy Birthday. “Everyday that I see this unbelievable face and smile it make me realize how lucky and blessed I am to have you as my wife and soulmate. You’re the reason I am a better man and you are a perfect example of how to be the perfect woman and wife. I love you very much and I am grateful to spend the rest of my life with you.”
