Let's make this birthday one to remember.

44 years old (Born on June 06, 1981)

Happy Birthday, Cheryl Ford! You didn't just follow in your dad's footsteps—you slam-dunked right past them. From dominating rebounds to leading the Detroit Shock to WNBA Championships in 2003, 2006, and again in 2008 (because winning once or twice clearly wasn't enough), you've always been a champion on and off the court.

Here's hoping your birthday is filled with as much joy as those championship celebrations—and fewer elbows flying around than under the basket during crunch time. May you continue rebounding life's challenges like they're missed free throws—effortlessly grabbing every opportunity that comes your way. Cheers!
