My daughter Sasja turns 19 today – time really does fly!
You’ve always followed your own path, and now you’re chasing your dreams at the ski academy in Norway with courage and joy.
I wish I could be there to celebrate with you and give you a big birthday hug.
You’re always in my thoughts.
Love you.
