Everyday like today...

"If every day was like today, I would stay in Korea forever..."

 

 

 

That's what I told myself last Friday. It was the most enjoyable day at work I've had since I've arrived!  It was start of the Korean Lunar New Year, I had just gotten paid, and all of my co-workers were in amazing moods. We also got an insane amount of gifts! To name a few: a bajillion boxes of Krispy Kreme donuts, tangerines from Jeju Island, Wild Rose hand lotion from The Body Shop, Starbucks coffee, Pizza Hut (much different from American Pizza Hut, but still delicious), bottles of wine, etc. Oh man, I was a happy girl...

 

 

ALSO... I received one of the sweetest e-mails in the world. I come home and I have this wonderful e-mail waiting for me from the director of Kids Club (where I worked before I came to Korea). Not a day goes by that I don't think of them. The message goes a little something like this:

 

 

Hi Sarah!

I just wanted to send you a picture of a “letter” Somara wanted to send you. She included “stamps” for you to write her back…they are only flag stickers. So sweet! Here is what the letter says:
“Dear Sara,

Dear Sara there is not a day that goes by that I don’t think about you. I pray for you every day. You will always be in my heart no matter what happens if we are far away are not I will always love you every night I pray and cry sometimes I just want you to be safe. I hope you can white me back I just want you to know that sometimes I think you don’t remember me but then I think you have to remember me. You will never leave my heart. Love Somara.

P.S. You are my favorit

My Birthday is March 18, 2003 Coming up soon. Can you send me a letter on my birthday to kids club or so they can give it to me on that day

I will never forget you!”

I hope all is well dear! Thank you for the video link! The kids LOVED it! (I sent them a hello video they watched in Chapel)

We all miss you!
