My little Liam,

One year ago today, in the wee hours of the morning, you made your debut into the world and we have never been the same since. That day holds so many emotions for me, many of which I can't even find the words to express. But one emotion I do know I felt, an all consuming love for a little somebody who I just met but felt like I had always known. I still look back fondly on the times it was just the two of us and I got the special blessing of getting to carry you with me wherever I went. Now, you carry my heart with you wherever you go and I'm certain you always will. If there is one thing I know with all that I am, it is that I was meant to be your mom. You are the joy in my life, the giggles in my day, the little best friend I was always missing, and the one who I adore. I've loved every moment we have shared and every memory we have made together over your first year and I can't wait for so many more! I hope you know that your dreams are my dreams and you can do anything your heart desires. I will be with you and supporting you every step of the way as you grow more and more independent every day. I hope that when you close your eyes every night you feel safe, happy, and most of all, loved unconditionally. Because boy do we love you. We celebrated your first birthday twice, once just us and once with grandparents and friends. I think it is safe to say you LOVE cake. ;) Happy First Birthday Liam! We love you to the moon and back!

Love, Momma
