Birthday Boy


Dear Isaac,

We can't believe you're one year old today! We remember the first day we met you like it was yesterday. The surprise phone call, the trip to the hospital, and the first glimpses of you. You've grown so much since that night--you're about 10 inches longer now, and weigh more than three times as much!

You have brought us such joy in this last year. Your daddy and I remember the first time we heard you laugh--it was the most amazing thing I'd ever heard. We've had such fun snuggling with you, reading to you, playing with you. You've been such an easy-going, peaceful, happy baby. And, oh my goodness, those cheeks! They are irresistible.

We are so excited about this next year. We get to watch you grow taller, learn to crawl and walk, speak your first words. You always look so intently at the people and things around you, we just can't wait till you can share with us what you're thinking. We're looking forward to watching you start to go from a baby to a little boy.

You are a gift to us, and you are very well-loved.

Mommy
