As I sit down to write this letter on the occasion of your first birthday, I am filled with more emotion than I ever anticipated I could feel. And trust me, I am a pretty emotional gal. (But you know that already, don’t you? You’ve been here this year, after all). I would use your own judgment as to when it feels like the perfect time. Kids, of course, do mature at different ages and some may appreciate it at different times than others. One year down and many more to go. It breaks my heart that I won’t be there to witness your whole, amazing life. But no matter where you go or what you do, may your mother’s words remain in your head and your heart. I love you. There’s nothing truer. Each letter has a space to record the day it was written, who it was written from and what memory is contained. There is plenty of room on the inside (A4) to capture those milestone moments, wishes and advice for the future. Letter suggestions include When you were in mummy’s tummy … We brought you home for the first time … Your idea of a good time is … When your mum/dad was little …
Needless to say, a sister is a blessing and shares a unique bond in every aspect. She is always there for us, whether hiding things from mom-dad or signing the low grades marksheet. We sometimes think what we would have done if this gorgeous girl wouldn’t be there in our life. Such are sisters, they will get themselves scolded and protect us. So, what better to thank her for everything she did than write a heart-felt letter on her birthday. Here we have few of the touching birthday letters for sister which you can choose to share. Heart Touching Birthday Letter to Sister As you celebrate your birthday, I hope that all your dreams come true. I hope you find joy in the little things, and I hope you always keep your heart open to love and new experiences. I wish you all the happiness, success, and love in the world. Finally, my precious girl, I don’t want you to ever stop dancing. I don’t care if you don’t know the moves. It isn’t important how high your leg goes or if your head is moving to the beat. Music has a profound power over you already, I can see it. I turn on a tune and you instantly bust a move. I say the word “Dance!” and you start right up again, even if you’re sad or tired. You started to sleep through the night. I learned to appreciate the little things like getting a shower and a good night’s sleep. I hope you have a wonderful birthday filled with laughter, love, and maybe a little bit of mischief. Just promise me you won’t get arrested this year, okay?
We can’t stop them growing up but we can capture those amazing moments to cherish forever! Our letters to my baby are a beautiful way to store memories for your child to read years from now. A truely thoughtful 18th birthday present for your not so little one in the future! A great alternative to a baby journal / baby memory book / daily dairy.
You learned to eat real food. And while I learned how to prepare baby purees and baby led weaning recipes, I really learned that you were going to do things in your own time. I learned that with you, trust is just as important as your nutritional needs. I learned that everything is a phase and my role is to support you in your process. As I wait for my son to arrive it's hard to remember exactly how I felt waiting for the arrival of my daughter, less than two years ago, but I know she changed everything. You learned to love baths and the ocean. I learned that it’s ok to get messy and (soaking) wet. Being the perfect mom isn’t about looking perfect. A perfect mom is a present mom.
Our four days in hospital with you were quite magical, caught in a bubble just the three of us for the majority of the time with all the help we needed to get you feeding beautifully until we were ready to take you home. Taking you home was an amazing day too, showing you where you would live, sleep and where you would be growing up for the foreseeable future. Happy birthday, you little rascal! Another year older, and hopefully a little wiser too. Although, from what I can tell, you’re still causing trouble like you’re 10 years old. You had your first holidays. You learned the word, “ spooky” for Halloween and “ tree” for Christmas. I learned to see the world through your eyes and everything was suddenly amazing again. Brand new, squishy baby. A tiny 6lbs 3oz. Blinking in the daylight, rooting for milk to help you grow big and strong. Meeting your bounding older brother, excited to meet you. Sometimes too over excited with you but you’ve learnt to dodge those slightly too enthusiastic kisses. The cuddles that push you over. The bond that grows day by day. The big beaming smiles that you bestow on your brother, lighting up your eyes. Those little dimples. Frantically crawling after him. It brings me joy to see your relationship grow. The way you both giggle together. The way I see glimpses into the future of you ganging up on me.
On your special day, I want to wish you all the happiness and joy in the world. May this year bring you good health, success, and many more blessings to share with those you love. Don’t be a bully, sweetheart. Don’t give in to the crowd that makes you think it’s okay to hurt someone or put them down. Every person is special and should be treated with respect. If you see it happening, speak up. The only way to stop them is to confront them. Growing older, facing our first plane ride together to escape the Dubai heat, just me and my boys. A summer in the UK, where you were introduced to the friends and family we don’t get to see out here in Dubai. You see Baby Boy, that’s one of the things being an expat kid, we live so far away. And I know that with technology these days you get to have a relationship, you get to see the familiar faces. But it’s not the same as real life cuddles. But Baby Boy, being an expat kid has meant that you get Mummy every day. At home. Which has meant that I’ve got to watch you grow every day. And that summer in the UK? We had a blast.
You learned to breastfeed like a champ at first latch. I learned everything about milk quality, supply, nutrition, and pumping.
