One

To my darling little B,

Already 365 days of your presence in my life have passed. Most days I now struggle to remember life without you here.

You are a handsome, lovely, gentle soul just as is your dad.

An amazing sponge, an flourishing flower, watching you learn has been an incredible experience.

Your sense of humour is wicked.

Your newly found (at this stage, tongue filled slopalicious) kisses melt my heart each time you willingly share them with me. The random unexpected smooches are sublime.

Your laugh lifts my spirits immeasurably, your cheeky toothy smile makes my day. Every time.

I am so happy, privileged and lucky that you chose me.

Undoubtedly you are inspiring me to fashion myself into a better person than I have ever been.

Happy 1st Birthday my little one.

I enjoy each and every moment with you.

And remember almost each moment like it was yesterday.

I cannot wait for each and every moment to come.
