Dear Kelly,
This year, I promised myself that I will make time to do something that you’ll like to flip through when you get older, aside from my phone. I mean, you just turned two and I haven’t printed any of your photos! Screw this digital era for making things so easy that we tend to just take things for granted. I’m pretty sure I’ll die when something happens to my hard drive. But before I swim through a thousand of your photos again and finally select which ones to print, I decided to put this site up just because I’m such a procrastinator I’ve been meaning to write you a letter for so long.
Eleven days ago, you officially turned two. Your Dad and I threw a small party for you at your Lolo A and Lola C’s house and it kind of reminded me of my own birthday parties at home–nothing fancy, just good food, lots of balloons, and of course, mocha cake.
You opened so many gifts that day, and your smile, oh, that smile, was so precious.
We even released the balloons that afternoon just because.
My darling Kelly, I wish that you’ll always remember that so many people love you. Our wish for you is simple–that you may grow with a compassionate heart, always steadfast, always true. Looking forward to celebrating your birthdays year on year and see your beautiful soul grow. ❤
Happy birthday, anak.
Love,
Mama
