A Special Party,


Today we held your birthday at our apartment, even though your official birthday isn't until Monday. I'm pretty sure you still don't quite grasp the concept of a birthday, but you had a blast nonetheless.

I hope to forever remember the pure joy on your face as we all sang happy birthday to you by the light of the lone number 2 candle on the cake we made for you. The candlelight dancing with excitement in your eyes. Your head occasionally bopping to our sing-song voices. The silent giggle & open-mouthed grin as you turned your head up in uncontrollable glee.

I want to remember it all, because its the little things that mean the most to me. The moments in which your strongest emotions shine through are my most cherished memories.

You are how the world should be.
