“Happy Birthday to my bright, fun, cool, and creative lil brother!,” Ava wrote beneath a fun photo of her and Deacon. “I’m so lucky to grow up with you and am so proud of all that you’ve accomplished already. You teach me how to see the good in just about everyone and everything and how to live authentically without fear of judgement. Thank you for being you! Love, Aves ❤️ #17.”
