THE BIRTHDAY GIRL
Back in June 2021, Catelynn sent birthday wishes to her first child, Carly.
The Teen Mom star had her 12-year-old girl back when she was in high school.
While in high school, the teen couple placed Carly for adoption and shared their story on 16 & Pregnant.
In her post, she also explained why she gave Carly to her adoptive parents, Brandon and Teresa Davis.
Catelynn wrote: "Today you are 12... 12! I can’t believe it...I remember the day you were born like a movie I have seen a million times...It was a few days of love and snuggles, but so many tears also.
She continued: "Adoption is hard on so many levels, but it has its amazing moments as well.
"The life you have is I wouldn’t have been able to give you when I was only 16, and I hope you will understand that as you continue to grow into adulthood.
"Knowing that @tylerbaltierramtv and I loved you so much that we gave you all that we couldn’t at that moment."
Catelyn concluded: "We love you, and we think about you every day!!!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY."
