Greek actress Ioanna Triantafyllidou and her husband, actor Kimon Kouris, have celebrated the first birthday of their son, Orfeas, marking one year since she became a mother.
The couple combined the birthday milestone with their son's religious baptism ceremony, which took place on Saturday, August 29, in the presence of family members, close friends, and prominent figures from the Greek artistic community.
First Birthday Milestone
On Tuesday, September 2, Triantafyllidou shared pictures from her son's baptism on her personal Instagram account. The published photographs revealed that the gathering also included a special birthday cake created for the child's one-year milestone.
Alongside the photos, the actress posted a video showing herself blowing out the candle on her son's birthday cake. Over the video footage, Triantafyllidou wrote a message noting that she had now completed 12 months as a mother.
Instagram Reflections on Motherhood
In a separate social media post published on Instagram to commemorate her son Orfeas's first birthday, Triantafyllidou shared personal reflections on her first full year of parenting.
She wrote that her son had officially completed his first trip around the sun, counting 365 days since his birth.
The actress added that the objectivity of the calendar was fortunate because time had felt relative throughout the entire year, noting that time had sometimes shrunk while at other times a single moment seemed to last forever.

The milestone celebrations followed the religious baptism of their son, which Triantafyllidou and Kouris hosted on Saturday, August 29.
The ceremony brought together relatives and close friends alongside several recognizable personalities from Greek show business and the performing arts.

The event was also attended by actresses Evgenia Dimitropoulou and Tamila Koulieva, as well as actor Apostolis Totsikas, all of whom joined the family to mark the religious sacrament and birthday celebration.
The gathered friends and colleagues celebrated alongside the couple as they marked both their child's baptism and his first year of life.
