October 3rd. What a great day to turn 1.
Last year on this day, we were at the hospital for your speedy entry into the world. It only took a few hours and we were so excited to meet you.
Thanks Charlie boy for everything you have given us over the last 365 days.
Happy birthday little buddy. Yes, you are the second kid, but you are so different and have taught up many new things. This is most tru true for me as I got to spend 6 months with you one-on-one. I will always remember those days.
Happy first birthday, Charlie! Aren’t I lucky that I just had a few days with you, a chance to crawl around on the floor in Manitoba of all places. I hear you revisited the hospital when you got home. Your favorite girl did too, with a double ear infection and bronchitis. We’ll remember this as the wedding of the sick children, among other lovelier things. Give your dad some snotty kisses for me.
Your gram and I are heading out on our trek shortly, from International Falls, Minnesota, to Escananba Michigan today. It’s so much fun. Have a wonderful day, all of you. xxxxx Susie
