My friend Abbie gave birth to the cutest baby boy one year ago today. He is such a charmer–and he isn’t even walking yet!

Graham,

Today you turn one! Holy moly. I remember eagerly awaiting your arrival—it took forever. I thought you were going to be a girl. But you were way better than a girl, even if you puked on me every time I held you.

I hope you have a wonderful birthday (even if your mean Mommy doesn’t buy you any presents) little one. You bring such joy to everyone you meet. Even child-haters. It has been such fun watching you grow. I am so looking forward to your terrible twos, but knowing you, you’ll be perfect!

Lots of Love,

Lauren
