The footage involved various milestones achieved by Margot over the last year — and Sam shared some moving words in tribute.
“First kiss, first hold, first pic, first cry,” Sam began.
“First time you stared into our eyes.”
“First book, first song, first smile, first bath.
“First time we heard the sound of your laugh.
“First cuddles, first Christmas, first swim, first flight.
“First sleep in your own room — we missed you that night,” he said as Sam and Rebecca were seen without their baby.
“First wave, first point, first step, first clap.
“Firsts happened, we won’t get them back.”
“First tooth, first solids, first fear, first fall, a privilege for us to witness them all,” the footage continued.
“First dance, first swing, first friend — firsts that will never be first again.
“Instant nostalgia, present becomes past.
“But in the blink of an eye, firsts become lasts.
“Last time we wrap you up in a swaddle, last time we get to hold your bottle, last time you’ll ever fit in that onesie, last time you’ll drift off feeding from Mummy.
“Today you’re walking, tomorrow you’ll run, our precious newborn suddenly one, time flies by, time is a treasure.”
“Firsts and lasts we’ll cherish forever.
We love you, Margot,” the piece ended.
Friends and followers took to the comments to share their love for the emotional video.

Sam and Bec celebrated Margot’s first birthday over the weekend with a Hungry Caterpillar-themed birthday — their baby’s favourite book.
The Sunrise star wore a caterpillar costume to mark the occasion.
“We’re going to have a little party for her on the Saturday then her birthday is Monday 11 of September,” Sam told 7Life ahead of the celebration.
“We’re gonna do a little party in the park with family and friends and a Very Hungry Caterpillar theme, that’s her favorite book.”
He revealed that Bec had been doing “demo attempts” at making the Caterpillar cake sharing that it is “harder than you might think”.
