My dearest Mika,
Today you turn 9.
It just seems like yesterday when I saw your tiny face, unfamiliar with me, and afraid of me.
Now, you are my best friend, my naughty little runt, and greedy girl who will do anything for your favorite treats!
Please stay healthy and live a long life to grow old together with your family. Daddy & Moscow would like to spend many more years together with you!
We love you our sweet little Mika!
