Later today we will be celebrating your first birthday, which falls tomorrow. I have baked you a carrot cake; I cannot remember the last time I made one. What I do know is that it was an obvious choice given that I had baked this same kind for your mother on her first birthday too.
What you have shown me about yourself thus far:
You give freely of your kisses - to stuffed animals, pictures in books, friends and family.
Your entertaining facial expressions are an ongoing source of joy and laughter.
You enjoy eating, moving your body to music, and reading "Pat the Bunny".
You are not keen on cats nor the feel of grass under your feet.
You are confident and curious, partnered with a healthy dose of cautiousness.
You have a wonderful sense of humour.
You are beautiful.
As you grow older, there may be times when you forget how fabulous you are. I hope not. However, if you do, you can read this birthday letter to help remind you of your inherent beauty and worth. During this first year you have brought a great gift to our entire family, just by being you.
Thank you for being born.
Love and kisses,Oma
