10 ยท 08 โ€” happy birthday

Happy birthday,
Darasimi.

Before anything else โ€” happy birthday, my fine girl ๐Ÿ˜. I put a few things together for you: a few truths I don't say enough, some memories, and yes, some of those goofy pictures you'll pretend to hate. Scroll on, cute little baby.

i.

The first thing I noticed was your voice โ€” before I'd even seen your face.

ii.

Then it was the plans behind your eyes โ€” an ambition that never asks permission.

iii.

You listen like every word matters. It's changed how I say things.

iv.

You once showed up on the one day I wasn't expecting anyone to.

v.

Somehow, knowing you made me a steadier, better version of myself โ€” cute little baby ๐Ÿคญ.

memories

A few, with more coming soon

Sam's still gathering photos for this part โ€” check back.

just for laughs

The goofy ones (there are a lot)

Because you're my fine girl in every version โ€” even the ridiculous ones ๐Ÿ˜‚.

Happy birthday, Darasimi.

May this year hold everything you're quietly working toward โ€” and a little more you didn't ask for. Whatever it brings, I hope I get to watch it happen right beside you, cute little baby.

With love, always — Sam
