Sam, Sebastiaan and Jacques enjoying eachother while Max enjoys some cake (bottom right corner)
In time I will write a whole essay about how much I love this kid and his parents, but for the moment I can only say that they deserve every moment of happiness. They fought for a family for six years and finally the family is complete with baby Sebastiaan. I was lucky enough to bake all the cakes for his first birthday celebration and what a celebration it was! Not just a birthday, but a shedding of past sadness and a massive embrace of the wonderful future with the most charming boy in the world.
