today is my 36th birthday, but it feels like my years’ counter has been reset, and I am starting my life freshly anew, from the beautiful 0. it’s a very different life indeed, where my beloved self-centered “I” was substituted for the cosy and happy “we”, and the reason and meaning of living suddenly became so clear.
months before my big 35th birthday last year your daddy started asking me: “what would you like for your 35th?”. half-jokingly I always answered: “I want a baby!”. now, I should have known that nothing is impossible for your daddy; he is the man who always manages to make my dreams come true. it was no exception with this one. exactly year ago I learnt I was pregnant with you. and it couldn’t be a better gift for my 35th birthday.
now for my 36th birthday I am blowing an imaginary candle on an imaginary cake and wishing you. my most precious gift, to grow healthy and strong, and continue to be the happy baby you are. I love you with all my heart, and beyond.
