Congratulations, Aaron! You seem to be having one success after another. Enjoy them and give yourself credit for your hard work.

I recall Bonnie Raitt laughing in an interview about the fact that what everyone else kept calling her "overnight success" had actually come after nearly two decades of very hard work.

Congratulations, Aaron!

That's wonderful, Aaron.

(Julie, Bonnie Raitt's reputation grew and grew over the years, but her debut album came when she was 21 years old to critical acclaim, and she had her first big hit single when she was 28).

Metaphorical champagne glass, Erik?? No, no... let's make it the real thing; it's very much nicer!
(Oh, you've edited your post while I was writing this.)
