Happiest of Birthdays dear one.

Happy Birthday dear Zuzu! Today is your 6th birthday.

We are so blessed to be your family. I feel like our bond as a family has only grown tighter over this past year.  The older you get the more we discover “you”. You have had such a constant sense of self. A sparkling, go-getter personality that has been trying since day one to show itself. I feel like now you are coming in to your own! The changes and growth in you over this past year are so phenomenal. You sparkle with intention and confidence now. Yet the thing that remains most constant is your tender heart. There is not a mean bone in your body. You just want to love and be loved. That is so clear now in every move you make, every word you speak and every activity you jump in to. You dive in with open arms and a full heart.

You are in public school now and absolutely blooming with your love of community, learning and making your own choices.

Once again you asked to do a “birthday interview” and write your own post. Later on this month I’ll share my gratitude for you and your series of celebrations- but for now- as you wish!
