Ember Jean Roloff has achieved a milestone.
It’s a simple one and, technically, it’s not one over which she had much control.
But it’s a major one nonetheless:
The only child of Audrey and Jeremy Roloff is now a year old!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
In celebration, most Little People, Big World cast members came together on Sunday, September 9 to pay tribute to the precious infant and to watch her smash some cake all over her face.

What Did Audrey Have to Say About This Milestone?
The former TLC star was a mess of lovely emotion. Scroll down to read her lengthy Instagram message/caption in response to this big day…
She’s ONE!
“I can’t even,” opened Audrey. “My baby girl is ONE. All day I’ve been trying to put words to my emotions, but I just can’t. I know that might seem cliché, but it’s the unvarnished truth. Maybe it hasn’t hit me yet. I have a one year old?! What happened to the palm-sized, squinty-eyed, sweetly-swaddled little miracle that we brought into the world 365 days ago?”
More. Always More.
“And I thought I loved with all the love I was humanly capable of loving with then… but then God gave me more. More thankfulness, more joy, more understanding, more faith, more peace, and more love. So much more love.”
In Conclusion?
“Ember Jean you light up our lives in the best way. You have a firey determination, eagerness to learn, hilarious expressions, brave curiosity and the most tender heart. It is an honor to be your mother. September 10th 2017 is Sharpied into my memory. Happy birthday Ember girlsie. We love you always, always more. #alwaysmore #emberjean.”
And Amy’s Message to Her Granddaughter?
“Happy 1st Birthday to my beautiful grand-daughter Ember Jean What a fun and blessed day celebrating her! Love you forever and always.”
And Matt Roloff?

And Tori Roloff?
“Happy birthday to my beautiful niece. You have lived up to your name baby girl. You are such a light in this world. You are so spunky and fun and I have loved getting to watch you grow this past year. I’m so thankful j has a cousin so close in age and I love seeing you two together. Happy birthday Ember Jean. We love you so much pretty girl.”
And a Few Final Words from Dad:
“Happy 1st birthday sweet girl! A year has already passed and it feels like only a day. I love your lively demeanor and graceful spirit, your brilliant smile, big lips, and piercing eyes. You are a masterpiece of creation and I pray that by now you know your Creator and love Him like Mom and Dad do. You are a bright light of joy to those who are shaded with the days troubles. When work has Mom and I short tempered and high strung, you always seem to make us laugh and relax. It’s been a joy getting to know you. You’re beautiful, unique, and loved.”
