Happy birthday, Alex!

Dear Alex,
Happy birthday! We love you to pieces! You make us laugh, give pitch-perfect advice, and cook up the most delicious pasta Bolognese (with capers!). You're hilarious to gossip with and such a joy to confide in. It's awesome that every TV show you watch includes the words "Mega Disaster" or "Haunted History," and I know that you secretly want to shave your beard sometimes but I love that you never do (thank you).
We feel so lucky to be your family.
Joanna + Toby
P.S. See you tonight!

That was a beautiful post, Joanna, Thanks for sharing it. I'm so happy that you blog, your posts are always life enhancing. (Your birth story was touching beyond belief - I have to ration myself to one read a month so as not to spoil the magic. Gorgeous.)
Seriously, Toby has the best baby brows EVER!
p.s. best birthday wishes to Alex :)
this is so sweet. I hope he has a lovely day. And omg, look at Toby's eyebrows! They are the cutest little things, ever.
Aw such a sweet post - hope he has a fab day x
awwwww! Happy Birthday!

he has to shave at least once, for toby's sake. this is a nec part of development in every boy's life. to see your dad with a beard one day, then it's gone the next, then at some pt it comes back. it instills a sense of the depth of being a man. the ability to lionize yourself.
That was so sweet, Joanna! HAPPY BIRTHDAY ALEX!
Oh, and don't ever shave the facial hair. I die a little bit each time by boyfriend shaves off his moustache for summer. Really, it's crippling.
Happy birthday to you....what a sweet post you wrote:)

What a lovely tribute to your husband!!!
I laughed at the beard comment, I have the opposite issue, I am begging to get it trimmed or shaved.... he refuses....

I found this so moving. Thank you! It's my boyfriend's birthday today, as well. The first of hopefully many we will spend together. Have a great time with your family.
Happy birthday to Alex. Such cute pictures:-) Also LOVE the painting Paul Ferney did of Toby - such a great thing for him to have when he is older.
Hope you have a wonderful evening

I love the way you describe your husband. Reminds me of all the good things I love about my boyfriend- but you said it better. ((Mostly the "good advice-giver" part and that I prefer him with a beard as well! :) ))
Have fun celebrating!!
