Dear Riley,

Happy
Birthday little man. One year ago today I rushed to the hospital to see
you born. You were in a hurry and I got there just in time for two last
pushes and then there you were here screaming your hello. I had
documented your journey here, your mom, dad and sister awaiting your
arrival. But on this day I got to take the first picture of you. Your
own little self, without the protection of your mama all around you.

You
arrived with that scrunched up little face and funny hair. You had the
first of many encounters with your sister and you were welcomed by your
family.

Now
that you are here, I could hardly imagine life without you. You are
only one year old, but you already have firm hold on my heart. Happy
birthday you sweet lil fella.

Love,

Auntie Sara
