Saddest day of my life: daughter's first birthday!

[ruhnaynay18711]

Today was our daughters first birthday party, and although it is supposed to be the happiest time for us, I couldn't be more depressed. We are missing him like crazy, no one around me understands, and to not even know where he is at a time like this makes it even worse </3

Be thankful you are able to celebrate her first birthday and remember, there will be many more....try to find the positive in this ugly situation.

I hope tomorrow is a better day....each day, you are one day closer to him being home.

Peace~

I completely understand he missed our sons birth being in jail and now he just missed his birthday last week we were all heartbroken. But I sent him a surprise walgreens photo gift cards saying happy birthday n surprise! It will get better, know that your guy loves you n your daughter. Missing him is always hard but make it seem as though he is away n take photos, write often n once u know where hes at visit. It took us 2months just 2 see him.

I feel the same way our daughters first birthday is the end of the month, he's sad I'm sad but the party must go on! At least he will be here for her 3rd birthday, some people will never have birthdays with their daddys! It sucks but I'm sending him an invitation to her party he asked for one I hope he will be home soon tho!

Our baby girl turned 1 on July 13th. He's been locked up since January but it was an AMAZING, wonderful and happy day for us!! Him and I discussed her party months ahead of time. He helped me pick out the theme, what her cake would look like, the color of her balloons, what her birthday gift would be from US, and we did it all through letters and our visits (all the planning.) He drew her a birthday card and wrote her a special letter for her baby book and then I wrote him a letter of every detail of her birthday from the time she woke up until she fell asleep. I told him EVERY detail, even what she ate for every meal and what she jammies she woke up in, just EVERYTHING!!! I'm sorry you were so depressed I decided months ago that since Bella only has one parent with her physically right now that I would make everything EXTRA special for her until Daddy's home <3

We went nd saw daddy on her first birthday,but her party was the day after her birthday. It was a very emotional few days for me&him. But he told it'll all be okay. At our visit we got to sing to her nd eat cake as a family so it made it a lil easier. Buy Leaving him behind on her birthday was the hardest thing I've ever had to do ever.

Forever&always

My son was born & his father was there... 2 weeks later bondsman busted my door in & pried my newborn off his fathers chest while they were sleeping and I was in the shower... It's been over 2 years & daddy will be home soon... Since that situation my boyfriend has vowed to pick a better path and I'm ready to put the bs aside & move forward! We've all been hurt in some way, but in the end this experience can mend any open wounds & heartaches. Tomorrow isn't promised so make sure to let people know u love them.

Instead of a party we are taking my son to see daddy on his 3rd birthday he also spent 20 mins at county with daddy on his second birthday. Its not idea but works for us
