Great Birthday Celebration!

We had Zuha’s birthday party on 14th, and it was a great feeling. Everything went just as I had hoped! We ended up with about 20 friends and their family. It meant so much to us to have our friends spent an evening with us celebrating a milestone. Not surprisingly, Zuha really hadn’t little interest in eating any cake. It was just a lot of fun. I have pictures that have yet to be uploaded. For me, it really was a celebration of such a long year. Zuha made it, and she did it smiling and happy. I couldn’t ask for anything more! Having our friends be there to celebrate this milestone (and those who couldn’t make it but sent cards and emails and phone calls) just warmed my heart because it showed me that Zuha really does have so many people that care about her.

Happy Birthday Zuha

My Dearest Zuha,

Happy Birthday to you

Last year this day, you were just making your way into this world, changing my life forever, in ways that I could have never imagined. Just looking at the picture of you resting after your delivery, so many things comes my mind

I promise you that I will do whatever I can to keep you with us, comfortable and happy, for as long as I can. You have made such an impact in our family in just the short year you have been with us, and I can’t imagine life without you now. I want so much to protect you.

Every time I look into your eyes and you smile, my heart just melts. There is so much more I want to say to you today, this day, but words fails me...

Today, we are going to have you big birthday party, with many of my friends. I love you my beautiful and pretty little angel.

Happy Birthday, Zuha
