A letter to my birthday boy

A year ago today we met our little boy Aidan. We never dreamed we would be so blessed and can’t imagine life before him. I needed to have an emergency C-section because his cord was wrapped around his little neck twice but he arrived no worse for the wear. He was pink and loud and the most beautiful thing I had ever seen. This is my letter to him on today, his first birthday.

Dear Aidan,

Wow! What a year! You have changed our lives in so many wonderful ways; you are a gift from god. Your Daddy and I are so very proud of you. You amaze us every day with your energy, humour and inquisitive little mind. You are such a busy little beaver and it is so fun to watch you explore the world around you. This past year has taught Mommy and Daddy so much about us as individuals and a family. You are the center of our universe and our reason for doing and being better every day.

You are the first grandbaby in the family and you have such proud grandparents. Your uncles and great uncles can’t wait to teach you all sorts of “interesting” things I am sure. The whole family has fallen in love with you and you are a bright light for us all.

Aidan, you have our love and support for a lifetime. We can’t wait to see you grow and change every day. You are a beautiful soul and our pride and joy. We love you more than words could ever express. Thank you for being your awesome little self!
Happy Birthday Sweetheart!

Love,

Mom and Dad (and Simon of course *woof woof*)
