Little girl, you have brought so much joy into your mother's and my hearts over the past year. At times, I don't think I deserve to know the joy it is to be your father. Then I am reminded of the hellish road I had to ride in getting you here. Your first birthday has been a happy one, I expected no less. It was such a warm feeling earlier tonight, to see you surrounded by your Darlin' and Pappa and your recently re-united uncle and aunt. Just like your mother and I, each of them loves and treasures you as well. Now your mother and I will prepare for the arrival of the several other well-wishers visiting this weekend. It is comforting to know that others appreciate the joy you have brought to us. May all future celebrations of your honoring be as rewarding as this one has!
