@Michaelmichael Happy happy birthday lovely Iara! Thank you for being such an incredible mentor here and always spreading the Puerto Rican awesomeness. I am doing some yoga positions in your honour :) Pi coladas all round!

@Laura Oh Iara, HAPPY BIRTHDAY! There are so many wonderful things to say about you on this special day. Some qualities that I really appreciate are: your willingness to dive in to a project, how you frequently find yourself in the middle of a difficult forum discussion and your ability to show love and kindness even when things are challenging. I remember one of the first times we ever PMed was about a spanish forum thread/ category, feels like a long time ago now. I have loved watching you grow into a power house listener, mentor and community leader. I have enjoyed watching you make 7 Cups your home, a place where you fearlessly walk towards challenges, voice your opinions and work passionately to make our community strong, diverse, loving and vibrant. I want to wish you the happiest of birthdays! I hope your special day is full of laughs, love and some delicious food! Thank you so much for the dedication you bring to our community every day. I am honored to have you on our team and look forward to another year of fun!
