ONE

A letter to Charleston,

You are one! How did this happen? You were a tiny baby five seconds ago and now you are a one year old! You have brought the most joy and love into our lives. I can't even remember what we did without your bright smile every morning and your slobbery kisses. You are such a happy boy and you just light up everything around you. When you were born and the doctor held you up so we could see, I thought my heart would burst from all the love I felt in that moment. We are so lucky that we get to be your mom and dad! Spending my days with you is just the best. Your little personality just shines and you are so funny. You love playing with your dad when he comes home from work, I think it might be your favorite time of day next to bath time! We love watching you grow and we can't wait to see what life has in store for you. Whatever it is, it's going to be big! Happiest of birthdays sweet boy, here's to a hundred more!

We love you to the moon and back.

Love, Mom and Dad

^^ We had a little party with a few of our friends and Charlie's favorite thing-PIZZA! It was so fun to celebrate our sweet boy.

^^ I think he was pretty pleased with the frosting. ;)

^^ The next morning we came out to the living room and he thought we had made a fort especially for him! He crawled in and out of his 'fort' all morning! I think he found a few stray pieces of cake too. ;)
