Saint Hailey Lynn James

Note: This was supposed to be posted yesterday; however, due to technical difficulties, that did not happen. So even though today is the 12th, St. Hailey's day is really March 11. Xoxo -Addy

Excuse me? Excuse me? Hi. Hi, everyone, hi. Listen up, because I've got some important stuff to say to you guys.

Do you know what today is? It's HAILEY JAMES DAY. I'm serious. Sometime in the future, today will be a official international holiday. Perhaps they will appropriately call it St. Hailey's Day. On St. Hailey's Day, school will not be cancelled. Rather, everyone will attend school and do all the things Hailey loves the most about school: there will be water bugs and labs class and early morning seminary and everyone will disrupt AP Lang (but not out of disrespect of course; please forgive us). There will be calculus, of course. But more importantly, St. Hailey's Day will be a celebration of independent, intelligent, selfless women, because that is exactly what Hailey James is. St. Hailey's Day will be a celebration of courage and women in science. On St. Hailey's Day, everyone will write on graph paper, have bulletproof phone cases, read thick Russian novels. On St. Hailey's Day, everyone will finally understand the truth behind Love is Sacrifice, and there will be a steel drum band, and hot older brothers and wonderful boyfriends will be honored in honor of the hot older brother and wonderful boyfriend of Hailey Lynn's life. On St. Hailey's Day, Harvard will hang Hailey flags, pleased with the glory of their favorite alumna.

But let me brag. Today, March 11, 2013, St. Hailey's Day has yet to be made official by world leaders, but I'm lucky enough to hang out with Hailey James herself every single day. I don't know what I did to get so lucky to be blessed with her presence, but I'm grateful for it.

Hailey Lynn James. My own saint. Bless you. Happy birthday, love!
