21) One of my favorite things about being your mom is watching you explore all those "firsts" - first steps, first words, first foods... You are always so eager to learn and do something new! Thank you for showing me just how much I still have left to discover too!
22) Poem -
To learn to walk, you sometimes fall
Too many tears to catch them all
To learn to win, you have to fail
Between your legs, you tuck your tail
There’s someone there to cheer you on
And hold you up when strength is gone
I promise to hold and keep you calm
Happy birthday, from me, your Mom

You of little height.

Laughing at what I teach
I’m free and light
Because of you, my lovely sight.

As we sing Happy 1st Birthday to my little child.
