One.
My boy, my boy, my boy. You are one year old today. Oh, how you’ve grown.
You are learning things so quickly. Crawling. Cruising. Bouncing. Banging on walls, doors, windows, cabinets to explore a variety of sounds. Playing “Where is Samuel?” Pulling yourself up and down so easily. You are so cautious — being careful to let yourself down so you don’t fall too far from the ground.
You are strong, determined, watchful, inquisitive, and oh so happy.
Happy birthday, my boy.
I love you so very much.
Thank you for turning my world upside down. The view is better from here.
