| We started today by re-visiting Kosair |
Clara and Wilson McGarvey turned one year old today and we couldn't be happier! One year ago we did not know if our children would ever leave the hospital. Tonight we are going to bed exhausted from a day of birthday cakes and presents. We haven't had the time to fully internalize the events of the past year, but somehow that doesn't feel as important as savoring this moment. We have plenty of time to recount their story. And having this as their story instead of their explanation is more than we thought possible at this time last year.

We took off their cute birthday outfits before having cake.
Chris insisted on each of them having their own cake.
Much to their chagrin, we also sang two renditions of "Happy Birthday" |
 |
Chris also made a cake for the adults.
Appropriately, it was Clara's chocolate cake - a family recipe perfected by the woman for whom Clara is named. |
 |
| We probably won't do this every year, but this year we felt champagne was necessary |
 |
| Clara had her cake and got to eat it too! |
 |
| "Yaaaaayyyyyy! I got the ball I wanted! I got the ball I wanted!" |
 |
| "Oh yeah, we could get used to this whole "presents" thing." |
 |
| As usual, Clara and Wilson were the centers of attention. |
