Happy Belated Birthday, Angela ๐ŸŽ‚

I made this for you โ€” enter the code I sent to unlock it

๐ŸŽ

Hey, Ang.

Wanted to give you a cool little space that felt like a fun reflection of you. If nothing else, just a really good birthday card. Either way it's yours โ€” hope you get a laugh out of it.

A note from Matt ๐ŸŽ€

Happy Birthday, Angela!

I am so proud of everything you are and everything you have accomplished. Becoming a Doctor, the adventures, the places you have lived, all of it. You move through the world with so much creativity, so much energy, and so much of yourself. I am so grateful to be your brother.

I look up to you more than you probably know. For your approach to life, your perspective, and for being you.

This site is yours. Do whatever you want with it. Make it a professional page, make it silly, make it an entire shrine dedicated to the Helens and their infrastructure. I will help you keep it up, update it, and shape it into whatever makes sense for you โ€” and I can show you how to do it yourself too.

Happy belated birthday, Ang. I love you.

โ€” Matt

And one small thing to go with it:

Angela

Angela is a physical therapist with a genuine gift and capability for helping people. She is the kind of person who brings real presence and strong consideration for the patients she cares for โ€” and for life as a whole.

When she's not working, you'll find her planning a hiking trip, at a concert somewhere, discovering a great restaurant, or tending to the Helens.

She is the kind of person who makes any adventure better just by being on it.

The Helens
They have names. The name is Helen. Do not question the Helens.

Who We Are

We are the Helens.

We did not apply for this section of the website. We assessed the situation, identified an opportunity, and moved on it. This is what we do.

We are chickens. We are also more than that. We have been described as "little," which is a perspective, and "simple creatures," which is exactly what we would want you to think.

We are not little chicken things. We are the Helens. We have a routine, we have standards, and the infrastructure holding all of this together was built by us, quietly, while everyone assumed we were just pecking around.

There are more of us than you think. There have always been more of us than you think. This is not new information. This is just the first time it has been on a website.

โ€” Helen, on behalf of all Helens, everywhere

Public Service Announcement
From the Desk of the Helens ยท Official Statement

It has come to our attention that we have been referred to, in certain circles, as Angela's "little chicken things."

We want to address this directly.

We have names. The name is Helen. All of us. We did not choose this, but we have embraced it fully, and we expect you to do the same.

We are not little chicken things. We are the Helens. We have a routine, we have standards, and the infrastructure holding all of this together was built by us, quietly, while everyone assumed we were just pecking around.

That is all.

The Helens, Official Statement Division
To request a meeting with the Helens Organization, present yourself at the east side of the yard no later than 6:47am on a day that works for us. We will not tell you which day that is. Arrive anyway. If a Helen approaches you, the meeting has begun. If no Helen approaches you, the meeting has also begun. We will follow up accordingly.

"standards." interesting word choice for a bird that can't fly.

Powerful statement. The Helens have always had my full support, publicly and privately. I am not food. I am Dave. I would like that on record.

I have been in this field for eleven years waiting for something to believe in. I didn't know it would be chickens. I am not ashamed.

Gary just asked me what I'm doing. I told him I'm busy. He said "you're just standing in the field." Gary has never understood me and this is why.

I want to be clear that I have always known the infrastructure was there. I felt it. Nobody listened. The Helens know what I'm talking about.

Gary is eating again. He's always eating. Eleven years, Carol. Eleven years of this man just eating and not once asking about the infrastructure.

I have decided to dedicate the rest of my life to this. Gary said "to what exactly." I didn't answer because honestly I don't think Gary is ready for the answer.

The Helens built something. In silence. While everyone assumed they were just pecking around. I have never felt more seen by a public statement and I am a cow who was not mentioned in it even once.

Gary went inside. Good.

A little something.

I ran into some issues getting a gift card code in here, so to make it easier โ€” I loaded $100 into our shared Amazon account. It's there for you now. Hope you find something that's just for you.
