Rockys of the world, unite. Travis Barker<\/strong><\/a> shared the sweet note that Sylvester Stallone<\/strong><\/a> wrote to the musician and Kourtney Kardashian<\/strong>\u2019s son, Rocky 13 Barker, for the baby boy\u2019s 1st birthday.<\/p>\n The Blink-182 drummer, 48, took to his Instagram Stories on Monday, November 4, to share a photo of the framed note written on personalized \u201cSylvester Stallone\u201d stationery. Travis tagged the actor, who starred as the titular Rocky Balboa in the 1976 film Rocky<\/em> and its sequels, as well as mother-in-law Kris Jenner<\/strong>, hinting that she was the mastermind behind the gift.<\/p>\n \u201cDear Rocky, My name is Rocky too. Your name is very special and is identified with wonderful things,\u201d the letter from Sylvester, 78, read. \u201cLife has many challenges you will face. You will need to show dedication and determination!\u201d<\/p>\n Sylvester continued, \u201cYou must never give up on your dreams, never! Now, most importantly, you must always value family, friendship and loyalty over fame and fortune!\u201d<\/p>\n The Oscar nominee concluded his note with, \u201cKeep punching, Sly \u2018Rocky\u2019 Stallone,\u201d a nod to his character Rocky\u2019s boxing career.<\/p>\n Travis loved the note to his son, adding over the photo, \u201cOne of the most special Birthday gifts.\u201d<\/p>\n The rocker and Kourtney, 45, welcomed Rocky on November 1, 2023. A few months before his son\u2019s birth, Travis told Complex<\/em><\/a> in July 2023 that Rocky 13 was his top choice for his baby boy\u2019s name for a few reasons.<\/p>\n \u201cRocky George<\/strong> played guitar for Suicidal Tendencies,\u201d he explained. \u201cAnd 13 is just the greatest number of all time.\u201d<\/p>\n He also noted that it could pay tribute to the film Rocky<\/em>, which he called \u201cthe greatest boxing movie of all time.\u201d<\/p>\n The Kardashians star and her husband celebrated Rocky\u2019s milestone birthday with a party, in typical Kardashian-Jenner fashion. Kourtney took to her Instagram Stories to share a glimpse at the bash on November 1, including a photo of two Mickey Mouse balloons. She also reposted a snap of a vintage carousel that was originally shared by stepdaughter Alabama Barker<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Though Kourtney and Travis did not share public shout-outs for their son\u2019s birthday online, Kris, 69, paid tribute to her grandson in her own Instagram post.<\/p>\n \u201cHappy birthday to our precious Rocky!! I can\u2019t believe you are already a year old! It feels like just yesterday that we were welcoming you to the world,\u201d the momager wrote, sharing photos and videos of the toddler. \u201cYou are grandchild number 13 and the most precious little smiley boy I have ever met!! I can\u2019t wait to watch you grow up and I am so thankful to God that He chose me to be your grandma. I love you so so much and I can\u2019t wait to watch you grow.\u201d<\/p>\n Kourtney and Travis have kept their time with Rocky mostly private in his first year of life, opting not to show his face in photos. The couple, who experienced a health scare when the Poosh founder needed emergency fetal surgery<\/a> in September 2023, hunkered down at home after their son\u2019s birth and stayed in their bubble as long as possible, a source exclusively told Life & Style<\/em> at the time.<\/p>\n![\"Travis](\"https:\/\/www.lifeandstylemag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/rocky-barker-halloween-costumes.jpg?fit=400%2C500&quality=86&strip=all\")
