Dear Graham,
Today you turn one! (9/08/07) You are turning into such a big boy. Sometimes that makes me sad, but mostly just happy to see you grow each day. I don't remember what it was like to not love you. I think that is what surprised me the most about seeing you the first time...how instantly I felt love, pure unconditional love. Because of you I understand a little bit more how much Heavenly Father loves us. You have taught me so much in such a short year. In fact just the other day, you taught me patience on the subway. You see, the train was packed...I mean PACKED. A nice man was smiling at you but you had other plans, you saw his cell phone. The man, being ignorant, handed you his cell phone. You thought this was a gift for keeps, he thought he was being nice for a second. He found out quickly of his mistake when he took his phone back. Your feelings were hurt and you SCREAMED and screamed and screamed. I took you out of your stroller (very awkwardly, remember the train was packed) but you were inconsolable. I'm sorry he hurt your feelings, but remember we can't have everything.
Daddy and I are so happy you are part of our family. You make everyday better.
Happy Birthday!
Love, Mama
