Dear Mitt Man,
I can't believe you are already 1! How fast time flies:) Just wanted to tell you how LUCKY I feel to be your Momma. From when I first learned you were a boy, I was pretty nervous to see if I would love my boy as much as I love my girl. It was new territory for me! Imagine my surprise when I first met you in the hospital room (after a long and horrible labor, but you were worth it even then) and I absolutely fell head over heals from the moment I laid eyes on you. My first words about you were, "Oh, he's so cute!" Which believe me, that is a rare thing right after birth:) The nurses took you to check you and weigh you, and I was just so anxious to get you back in my arms! I was lucky enough to be able to join Daddy to watch your first bath, and experience with you most things only daddys are lucky enough to see. When it came time for "sleep," the nurse asked me if she should take you to the nursery and just bring you in when you were hungry. I surprised myself when I told her No Way! I needed my boy with me all night long. Right from the beginning. From those first moments I have been so very in love with you, though you were quite naughty:) I know you can tell just how much I love you when I look you in your huge brown-in-the-middle-green-on-the-outside eyes that are colored just like mine. I can tell you feel the same about me:) When Dad tries to claim you as a Daddy's Boy, inside I just think he doesn't know what we communicate to each other words unspoken. You are the happiest, smiliest, giggliest baby I have ever known. You are so sweet and loveable with everyone. I love your strawberry blonde hair and your chubby man belly. You are WAY MORE than I could have every prayed for. I love you Mitt Man, happy first birthday!
Love, Momma
