First

First birthday. First child. First time mother.

My heart is full of pride and amazement at this child who didn't exist even as a bundle of cells just two years ago. He is so full of wonderment and delight with his world, curious to investigate and explore how everything works, whether natural or man made. He is full of excitement towards everyone he meets, wanting to feel their noses or poke at their eyeballs, testing out his theories and exploring new textures...or simple to hug or kiss those he loves or another child in distress. He loves company, happiest in a social environment, but we are, after all, social creatures. He loves bashing and hitting things to make music, to dance, to be lively and boisterous, but he can also be gentle, stroking cats with the lightest touch, a delicate nature reserved only for animals so far!

My heart is bursting with love for this little person who has already made such a strong and determined mark on his world and on those he meets. My independent little adventurer.

Happy first birthday, my beautiful son.
