Happy Birthday Henry!





Dear Henry,


I can't believe you turned one year old today. The past year with you has been the greatest but fastest year of my life. I knew that I would love you, but I had no idea how much.


We tried to imagine what you would look like and what your personality would be like, but the reality of you is one hundred times better. Not only are you absolutely adorable with your white blond hair and sparkling blue eyes, but you are such a happy little boy. You are always so full of fun and mischief. You also inherited your little temper from me I am afraid!


It has been a joy to watch you grow and learn and I am so happy you are mine! Happy Birthday sweet boy!
Love,
Your Mama

Dear Henry,
Happy 1st Birthday! What a joy you are, not only to your Mama & Papa -who love you more than you will ever imagine, but to our entire family. Unfortunately they have NO idea how fast the rest of the years will go....
Lots of Love on your Birthday,
CJ

Oh geeze Vanessa...thanks for making me cry! You put into words exactly how I felt on Matthew's 1st birthday a few months ago. Happy Birthday to Henry!

Vanessa you are right he is a joy to be around, even though he won't let me hold him. He gives that little smile every time he's about to do something that he knows he should not be doing, but he does it anyway. He is a little devil and a very happy baby/ little boy.He is his own person and that is not bad, you were very much and still are your own person and I think you turned out just great.
