feliz cumpleanos mijo


today marks an incredible day in our family. the day when i gave birth to mateo luz. as it turns out it is no coincidence that we named him "luz". mateo lives up to being the "light" in our lives in so many ways. we are blessed to have him. we are blessed to have survived this first year. we are blessed.

mateo, i love you beyond words. i am grateful for your choosing me as your mama. i know this first year has not been an easy road but you have weathered it well and i just know we have so many years ahead to look forward to and spend together. life is looking up little man. and that is largely due to you. feliz cumpleanos.

mi corazon,
tu mama.
