Today You Turn One
It all begins with an idea.
It’s been a year
Of watching you grow
Loving who you are now
Loving you of tomorrow.
It’s been a year
Making friends with the moon
But I’d relive each night
Because I got to hold you.
It’s been a year
Watching crawling become walking (almost)
Uncertainty become confidence
and soon you’ll be talking.
It’s been a year
of us together
A newborn no longer
But my baby forever.
It’s been a year
Of you on my chest
You’ll never remember it
But it’s been one of the best.
It’s been a year
Of first teeth and first smiles
Can we slow down a little?
Can we just stay a while?
It’s been a year
Of two brand news
The day I met me
Was the day I met you.
It’s been a year
Our first trip round the sun
Happy Birthday to you.
Today you turn one.

Leave a Birthday Wish
It all begins with an idea.
As much as we would love to celebrate this milestone with all of our family & friends in Germany and the US, we understand that’s not always possible.
This is why we would love for you to leave a little birthday note, fond memory or a simple wish for the future for Iris. We will collect them and add them to her photobook - a keepsake that we will share with her when the time is right.
Thank you for being on this journey with us! It truly takes a village and we are so grareful for all of you.
With love,
Josh & Mary
