Happy 2nd Birthday Holden! It seems like just yesterday that we were celebrating your 1st birthday. This past year has been amazing and you have taught me to believe in miracles. You've overcome so much and come so far! I know I tell you this all the time, but Mommy is so proud of you. I am so happy that as you grow, your body is healing and you seem to be getting stronger and stronger day by day.
I am thankful that God made you the strong-willed little guy that you are.
I am thankful that God made you the strong-willed little guy that you are.I am thrilled that you are now free from needing oxygen during the day. The freedom from the nasal cannula seemed to be just what you needed to really take off developmentally. And because of all your hard work, you are now caught up to other kids your age! Truly amazing when you think of how behind you were just one year ago!!
You have such a zest for life. Like the other night at the circus, I loved watching your face as you watched and cheered for the acts. I loved that you cheered whenever YOU wanted to...not just when the rest of the crowd did. And I know you wanted nothing more than Mommy and Daddy to put to down so you could go join the fun in the center ring!
Your determination and zest for life inspires me every day. I want to be a better person because of you. Seeing you overcome so much, makes me want to tackle my own personal goals and even makes me open to new experiences!
Holden, I thank you so much for all the joy you've brought into my life this past year and I promise you that this next year will be full of fun, love and God-willing, good health!! I love you, my little 2-year-old Monkey!Love,
Mommy
