dear baja...

We miss you, a lot. Our little peach fell in love with you while you were here and she continues to smile with great delight anytime she sees a picture of you. In fact, most times she smiles so big it becomes an entire body smile :) Thank you for loving her with all your heart. I can promise you that she loves you right back.

For these last couple of years, you have been following your dream and are finally playing the sport that you love so much in one of the most beautiful countries in all the world. I know how hard it's been to get there and I can't tell you how proud of you I am. Thank you for being such a great example of what it means to have a dream and set goals along the way only to work and accomplish them. You have always been so good at that and it's something that I have always admired about you.

This weekend you are home for a short time and I wish with all my heart that we could come see you. I know how hard this is not having us there.. believe me it's not any easier for us. Please know that we think about you often and love you more than you will ever know. Merit looks at pictures of you everyday and I know how much she loves you. I hope you enjoy your time home and soak it all in. We love you Kristin Lynn. Thank you for all that you do. 

***ciao bella!***
