Anne Curtis and Erwan Heussaff marked their daughter’s first birthday with a garden celebration and a fundraiser for UNICEF.
Mom and daughter ate Dahlia’s floral cake with their hands, as seen in the actress’ Instagram post yesterday, March 2.
“She owns every little bit of my heart. Happy 1st Birthday to my Dahlia Amélie. I love her to the moon and back infinity times,” wrote Curtis.
The “BuyBust” star also made sure there were actual dahlias for the occasion, even if sourcing them was a challenge in the Philippines. Curtis tapped events stylist Gideon Hermosa for the setup.

Heussaff, meanwhile, called Dahlia his “little bright light.”
“Here is to a year when absolutely nothing went according to plan, except for this little bright light. When days crawled and months raced by. When [I] became a student again and she, my teacher. Happy 1st birthday,” he said, sharing photos too of their celebration, where Dahlia fed her mom cake.
Curtis also marked the milestone with a UNICEF fundraiser to help marginalized kids. She launched the fundraiser last month and has so far raised P650,000 out of the P1-million target.
To celebrate her daughter’s first birthday on March 2, UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador @annecurtissmith created a fundraiser to help more vulnerable babies in their first 1000 days of life.
