Dearest Ava,

From Mom & Dad:
Wherever life takes you, our love goes with you. Always. We believe in you more than words could ever hold.

Wherever you are, celebrate it.
Celebrate your journey. Celebrate the person you are becoming.
Let the twinkle in your eye stay bright.
You are exactly where you are meant to be.

A Few Things We Hope You Always Remember

- Fill someone’s cup EVERYDAY.
- Do the things that scare you just enough to help you grow.
- Choose the moments that make your heart feel alive, and hit repeat.

Through every chapter, every change, every brave step forward, know this: we are so incredibly proud of you.

No matter how far you roam or how big your world becomes, you are always loved beyond measure.
Home is never a place you have to find again. It is here, steady and waiting, cheering you on as you explore,
and ready to wrap you in comfort whenever you need it.

From Cameron:
I'm proud of the person you are and the one you’re becoming.

From Jack:
You make everything brighter just by being you. Don’t ever stop being curious, brave, and kind. I’m always cheering for you.

From Roscoe:
You have the biggest heart and the boldest spirit. Go live your adventure, knowing how deeply you are loved every step of the way.

From Harriet:
No matter how far you go, you’ll always be my person. Come home whenever you need a cuddle, a laugh, or just someone who loves you exactly as you are.

With all our love,
Mom, Dad, Cameron, Jack, Harriet & Roscoe
