You are one today.
I'm trying to let that sink in.
It makes me a little sad that we have missed your first year. We missed your first smile, first laugh, first crawls and scoots, first steps (if you're already walking). BUT we are so looking forward to all your firsts you'll have with US! Your first plane ride, the first time you ride in a car seat (bet that will be funn!), first time eating at a table with your family, your first hugs and kisses, your first friends, oh the list will go on and on. We are so very, very excited for those moments.

On your birthday, and everyday, you are adored and loved already by your family here and we are working very hard to bring you home as quickly as possible so we won't miss a second more.
It is so hard when their birthday's pass. I pray another one does not pass without you!!!! What a celebration his 2nd year party will be. Can't wait to see pictures of it.
ReplyDeleteYES! I can't wait to see what he's "into" and plan his 2nd birthday party. If he's anything like his big brother, he will LOVE sports! :)
DeleteSomeday, your son will be able to look back at this blog and realize how fully loved he was before you even met him. Wish you could celebrate together . . .
