Happy Belated Birthday to George!
A few weeks ago this thing happened, George turned 1. We were traveling, so I wasn't able to document it here. We did, however, celebrate. We had a family party in our hometown with some really dear friends whom we don't get to see often. George was really excited for homemade cake and cookies (made by his godmother), but he didn't really care about his birthday. You see, babies aren't in to birthdays. Parents, siblings, and grandparents are into birthdays. I firmly believe that we celebrate first birthdays for the adults, not for the baby. Archer and I celebrated surviving our first year as the parents of three energetic boys, and we celebrated the funny, thoughtful, kissable little guy who is George. We're still figuring out who he is, but we're having a lot of fun watching him come into his own.

I fully agree with you on first birthdays.
