Birthdays do something strange and beautiful to time.
They slow it down just enough for us to look back.
I find myself remembering the firsts … your first breath, first steps, first questions about the world. The real magic isn’t in the milestones, but in the quiet becoming that happens in between them.
Watching your character take shape is one of the great honours of my life.
Your sweetness. Your kindness. Your curiosity.
The way you meet the world with an open heart and a steady, quietly confident presence.
You’re always up for the adventure … a surfboard, a skateboard, a new idea, or one of our long, beautiful chats. I love how deeply you feel, how thoughtfully you speak, how naturally you move through sport and play, how at home you are in your body and in yourself.
You blow me away every day.
Today I get to celebrate our Otto. 7 already. 💜🥰💜
Thanks to all our family and friends who made Otto’s bday so special!
