My Heart Says Thank You

sara- i got your package and i cried.
i think i cried for two reasons.
one because i miss you. life with you as a roommate was so nice. you understood me, i understood you, there was nothing we couldnt talk about, no competition, but simply living. all of which is being made more clear.
 another because i’m so proud of you. you are doing this. you are living in india. you are experiencing these things and this beauty and this is something that no one can ever take from you. (and i should be the one sending you packages, not the other way around…)
when i read your note, all blackened from newsprint, and soft and all- i had to think about the places that paper has been and i’m so thankful. and then i opened the journal and i love the idea that you have one too. your note made my heart warm…
the journal is gorgeous and the belt (i’m sure there is a better word for it!) is amazing - i just got a pair of pants at target that had a belt that i’m sure was inspired by india, and now i’m so excited - i have the REAL thing!
things here are good - the game is back and perfect and in stores - but yet scary. it’s do or die time as they say, and we’ll do i know - but it’s been made clear that this is when we work our asses off and we relax later — and that we are doing for sure. but we are going to toy fair in new york in feb. and i’m in charge of that and its crazy sara - it’s so easy to feel so grown up and feel 12 years old at the same time.
i’m holding you in my heart and keeping you close. my prayers are with you always. well my love - this is it for now. thank you again, you never fail to amaze me… k
(ps. jax wanted to say hi too!)

Hey Kristen!

I’m so pleased you got my package!  I’m sure it was pretty battered by the time it got there =)  So a toy fair in New York-That’s awsome, i’m really proud of you!  Thigns are good here, i’m waiting for my flght to take off for Sri Lanka- i know, it’s crazy, but it will be fun.  How is denver treating you? You know, I’ve read so many books here about following what your heart tells to you to do, and listening to what your inspirations are, that each time I have more and more respect for you, and your detication to Shift.  You really are someone who knows their heart, and listen’s to it- your in a league of your own.  I’m sure it must be diffibult to keep the faith living in the city and such, but you can be sure that your work is for something that you truely believe in, and that’s all that counts =)  I’m really glad you liked the joural and the belt, I loved the picture of Jackson!
Talk to you soon,
love always,

Sara
