Happy Birthday little Gavin!
I used to live down the street from your Mimi when your Dad was growing up. I found your blog while I lived in Canada and followed you through ups & downs. My Bible Study Ladies (Canadians) would pray for you each week. Our prayers have been answered in your healthy, happy little one year old body. I'm living back in B.A. now
God Bless you always in all ways
Happy birthday Gavin!! YEAH!

You are such an amazing blessing of God and I have enjoyed being able to read of all of the hurdles you have conquered and the cute little stories that show your little personality.

You are such a CUTE lil' boy with the greatest lil' personality...I can't wait for the next blog! :)

HAPPY FIRST BIRTHDAY GAVIN!
On your first birthday we would like to give you a birthday wish, or two! :)
We wish for you a life filled with laughter and fun, and for courage and contentment. We wish for you an appreciation for life and a deep understanding of what it means to really live. We wish for you to have a spirit big enough to move mountains and a faith that will remind you that with the help of God you can! But most of all we hope that you will FEEL and BELIEVE how amazingly you are loved by everyone who has come to know you!
Happy 1st and many many more!

Happy "1st" Birthday Gavin! We have never met in person, but you and our daughter Grace, share the journey of HLHS. You guys are truly "little miracles". You have taught me what faith and truly relying on God is all about. Through the videos and pictures, you exhibit such a sweet, precious, personality and what a BEAMING smile! We are so glad we "met" you and can't wait to tell Grace all about her other "heart friends" when she is older. You, your mommy and daddy, will always be in our prayers.
Laura, Grace and Ryan

You are always in our prayers, and we pray God continues to grant you good health and lots of happiness!!!
