Today is one of my favorite people's birthdays! Yes- Colin turns 4 months today but it is also my best friend Kristin's birthday! Kristin and I have been friends ever since rainbow sweaters, bangs, scrunchies, and big glasses were cool.
Today Kristin and her husband are in Australia. They moved to New Zealand last spring, a dream they had been talking about for years and just recently moved to Australia for the second part of their life abroad. I can't wait for them to come home. I could go on and on about the reasons that I love this girl!
Kristin-
If you happen to see this post today, Happy Birthday! I beyond wish I could have a cup of coffee with you and celebrate your life! It's very true that you don't always realize how much a person means to you until they are gone. I mean I knew you were a one in a million kind of friend! When Colin was born it was so weird not having you visit at the hospital, but the surprise gift you sent in the mail sent me into tears for about an hour! Once again I was reminded how amazing of a friend you are!
I'm so proud of you and the adventure you are on right now! And I can't wait to hear all about it! I can't wait to hug you and grab coffee like we do- discuss the world's problems, celebrate life together, and listen to each other's stories! So Happy Birthday today! I hope the Australia has an incredible day planned for you! Miss you and love you! xoxo Kari

ahhh!! This is THE BEST. I miss you too and definitely need a coffee date. Man, if only I could give you a taste of this summer weather and have you share it with me....
ReplyDeleteThanks for the sweet note. And I seriously need to find that sweater. It might actually fit me now?!
Only the coolest people are named Kristin with an "I-N". :) This is so sweet!
