Happy first birthday to my amazing son. He arrived at the most difficult time in my life and motivated me in so many ways to keep going and keep taking care of myself. I am so thankful for him. I still can't believe a whole year has gone by. At the time of his birth we seemed frozen in a living nightmare. I still can't believe that his Nana wasn't here to watch him turn one, see him crawl around chasing balloons, watch him open gifts and spread tissue paper, laugh at him eating cake. It's an ache that will never really go away, though it does lessen. Significant dates eventually become less painful and we create new traditions and new ways of doing things. So here's to another year every bit as precious, but hopefully not as hard.
