how do you measure a year?

Seth 1st Birthday


I have always loved this song from the musical "Rent." How do I measure a year you ask? Well pretty much how the song states. It is measured in LOVE!

How did I measure this past year...in 10 little fingers and 10 little toes. In one full head of hair a top the face of one charming little man. In long blonde eyelashes and big "open mouth" kisses.

Seth turned 1 today and we can't believe that we have had our little man for 12 full months. We commemorated the day by letting him "Eat Cake." He was beside himself with joy. A plate full of sugar frosting and sprinkles all to himself. Every limb was involved in the process of digging and he made it appoint to share handfuls of his birthday dessert with those around him. That is so like our Sethy...sharing his joy.

Eat all the cake you want little man. It is your day to celebrate. Thank you for coming to our family and for filling our year with joy and LOVE!
