Happy First Birthday Ross!!!

Hard to believe it's already one year, but yes it's Ross's first birthday today - thank you to everyone who has sent cards and gifts. We've celebrated with both sides of the family in the past 2 weekends, and plan to have more cake when I get home from work this evening...

I don't need to point out to those who know us what a year this has been. The wee man has been through so much already and has so many uncertainties ahead of him. It felt very bizarre to find myself telling him I was giving him a special birthday treat this morning by giving him his bottle before his medicines, but that's the surreal world we're living in. Maybe one day we'll wake up and find out it's all just been a bad dream...

At the same time, no matter how tough it gets, Ross has a smile that can raise everyone's spirits, and I know that whatever the future brings we'll find a way to get through it together.
