Happy half birthday Rhys! 🎉 You came to this world at a pretty wild time, no? It’s not always like this.
I hope that soon enough, we’ll be able to get back to all that good stuff we really enjoyed. Hiking with you in the backpack carrier. Taking sis to the dog park. Visiting Lola or your cousins Zara, Luke, and Simon. And then there’s all the stuff we had to put on hold. Your first trip. Meeting your Cousin Levi. That swamp tour we were gonna take.
In the meantime, slowing down to spend time with you has been the brightest spot in a crazy and chaotic time.
⌛️⏳⌛️
When you first showed up, I wanted time to suddenly expand and every day to pass as slowly as a year. This isn’t quite what I meant, but it’s what we’ve had.
This past month, I’ve loved watching you have fun in the pool for the first time. I love how much you like sweet potatoes, and I hope you come around to like avocado a bit more. 🍠 Maybe when you discover guac. 🥑 I love that you find Beignet hilarious.
These past six months have been the sweetest.
Six Months of Rhys
