Writing With Whitney bore its first post on June 27, 2010. Words couldn't and even today cannot express the sheer happiness I felt writing that first post. In the midst of the excitement that was the first week of the blog, I slapped myself on the forehead because I decided to create the blog the day after one of the most greatest and memorable dates known to mankind...Derek Sanderson Jeter's birthday (Derek was born on June 26, 1974). Clearly that decision still haunts until this day but today, June 26, 2011 is my redemption for I will use this space to say HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEREK JETER!
The love I have for Derek Jeter spans beyond his gorgeous blue green eyes, scattered freckles on his nose, pearly white teeth and 6 foot 3 inches 180 pound frame, no, it's something much more than that. I first became enamored with Jeter in June 1995. I didn't know much about love but what I was certain of was the fact that I was 7 and my heart was pounding fast. That was me thinking "who is that man? He is cute!". For the past 16 years, that love has never died and I'll be the first to shout from the rooftop, "He is my husband and we've been married for over 10 years". Over that span of 10+ years, millions of women would go on to profess the same sentiment.
While I can sit here and dispute their claims, I'll keep this post argument free and just say Happy 37th Birthday Derek Jeter. Enjoy this day, live it up, soak up every moment, and revel in the fact that your fans love you, appreciate you, and are grateful for your existence and your hard work. Thank you
Now, I couldn't leave my readers stranded. Here are a few photos and video of Derek that are sure to break your CPU's:
