One Year Old

Feven, you are one year old today.  Look how you've grown!

We love your personality.  We love your smile and your laugh.  We love the way you giggle when we do silly things.  We love how interested you are in books and how you read them as you flip the pages.  We love that a plastic water bottle and a dish towel are your favorite toys.  We love how excited you are to walk holding our hands.  We love the way you coo and babble to yourself, and converse with us in that way.  We are proud of how quickly you've learned to communicate with us through signs.  We admire your courage in embracing and thriving in a new home, family, and culture.  We love you.  We are so happy you're in our family. 

Happy First Birthday Love.
