March 6th is the birthday of Michael Shajin Sullivan: son of Bob and Darlene; husband of Shelly; father of Jake, Seamus, Mia, Augustine, Sofia, Penelope and Maximilian; brother of John, Jim, Bobby, Paul, Tim, Sister John Mary, Margaret, Ella and Peter; nephew, cousin and friend to many, many more lucky folks.
Mike (a.k.a Tim😂) is one of the most easy-going men I know. Nothing phases him, and if it does, he won't show it. He'll take on most any challenge, a trait he has passed on to his sons. (I watched Gus accept a challenge on the beach that had him ask a complete stranger to rub sunscreen on his back!)
Whether he's working as an experienced salesman, or exploring the world with his seven children and Shelly at his side, Mike is always resourceful and joyful. It was quite hilarious watching him and his crew running and jumping on the beach at midnight as they hunted for grunion at Huntington Beach a few years ago. His faith is inspirational, his kindness is constant, and his humor is hilarious.
Happy Birthday, Mike, and may you have 80 more healthy ones, by the Aunt Joannie Sullivan Law of Longevity Aspiration of 2008.
God bless us and save us and keep us from harm.
Love, Patty
