When we were in the thick of it, when everything seemed chaotic and scary, I remember thinking: When you are six months old, all this will be in the past, life will be easier. February 15th became a milestone in the future, something to stretch out for in rough times. And now, we are here! You are a whole half year! And life certainly is easier.
Ulv River, you are such a shining light. Through the mess, you sparkled and led the way. I've said this all along: If I'd only listened to you, and trusted what you showed me, I wouldn't have had anything to worry about. You have been my spirit animal. And now, as you have travelled your first half turn around the sun, the days with you are easy and fun and full of laughter and snuggles. How lucky we were to have you! We love you so!
