“You made me a momma and you have brought us all so much joy and happiness. I know how much you’ll be bossing us around this year making your favorite pancakes, going to the park, blowing bubbles and playing with your favorite toys and watching Ms Rachel all day. You were loving cars last year so of course this year we’re celebrating you with the best cake and cars. And we welcome you all to celebrate Asher today and think about him too 🤍,” she wrote.“There is so much I want to say but it’s so hard not having you here. My heart is forever broken. I just hope you’re celebrating wherever you are and wishing you are blowing out your own candle this year. I love you so much Asher. Happy Birthday my sweet boy ❤️.”

“The doctor told us he had the cord around his neck so when the contractions happened it would tighten around his neck which led to his heart rate dropping,” she explained at the time. “I’m just so glad our amazing doctors delivered him safely. It was awhile before I got to finally hold him once I was in the recovery room. I couldn’t believe it, he’s FINALLY HERE in my arms! I feel so blessed and lucky to be your mother and understand what everyone has told me. There is no love like this 🥹.”
