Birthday gift!
Dear Gavin,
I am tearing up as I write you this letter. Its hard to believe one year ago you were born. Life is so wonderful with you here. Daddy and I love you more than you will EVER know. You are the sweetest little boy and so happy, curious, helpful, WILD (but we love it!), bright, smart, and lovable.
The day you were born was just magical. You never cried - just looked around the room with your big bright beautiful eyes. Everyone commented how BEAUTIFUL you were. Really - some babies are kinda wrinkly and blobby, but you my sweet Gavin were perfect. I remember the look on Daddy's face when he first saw you. I have never seen a look of love and such pride! He still tears up (ok, blubbers) when he thinks about that day - or any day with you really. One day he will sit you down and tell you all about it. I remember holding you and locking eyes with you. We just gazed at each other for such a long time. We still do that sometimes when you let me hold you - you are usually too busy chasing poor Emma around or playing with your toys!
You are getting so big and everything is new and fun to you. At school you moved up AGAIN because you are so bright and smart! You are the youngest by 6 months and still one of the brightest. Its amazing. You like to play with other kids are so sweet to them. I am so proud of you!
Thank you sweet baby for making our lives so wonderful and complete!! Happy 1st Birthday!!
Love Mommy
During!
