Happy birthday


One year ago today, your mom and I finally got to meet you. We couldn't get over how cute you were (and how loud). And we were immediately impressed with your tan. Particularly given the genes you inherited. We discovered later it was jaundice, and that you were not tan but, in fact, orange.

So began a year of discoveries.

You will probably never know how very much your mom and I love you. And anyone who knows us knows that we waited a lot longer than 9 months for you to come into our lives.

Now you are one, little man. Happy birthday. You make dada (and mama) proud.

Happy Birthday Sam! Being 1 is great...you can finally start running all over the house, try to climb the stairs when your parents aren't looking, pull bags of cookies off the pantry shelf & do your Cookie Monster impression and most importantly, chase the cats all day long!

Oh yeah, remember to smash your birthday cake in your hands and make a mess. You can get away with it today but apparently it won't go over well tomorrow. Same goes for carrots & cheese.

Happy 1st Birthday!
