One thing I can’t resist doing, is writing my yearly thanksgiving post.
It was always a sacred thing for me to write so I am continuing that tradition. Here👏It👏Is👏
I’m so grateful to you. Grateful we had 7 beautiful years together. Grateful you gave me, Jon & my team so much love in the final days of Wild Way. The company was all made possible because of you.
After selling our camper, Jon and I moved to Canada - a town in Ontario filled with Jon’s family.
We are smitten with this place. We’re close to the beach, great farmers markets, an incredible coffee shop, and Jon’s beloved grandparents.
I have so much I want to share. Although selling the camper was one of the hardest things I ever did, it was the right choice for us & I’m grateful your love ushered us into this next chapter. Sometimes the right choice is the hardest choice. It is so helpful when you have the right people by your side as you make it. You were those people.
There’s so much about Wild Way that shows up in my daily life as little morsels of memories.
The cup I drink my morning matchas from.
Jon’s painting that once hung on our brick Warehouse walls, that now hangs in my coffee corner.
The stain glass camper Josephine made, that catches the morning light.
The latte art Jon pours for me - just like he did every Saturday at the farmers market. The one I’d drink as I ran around buying fresh lavender or peaches for garnishes on your drinks.
On the mornings I make my own coffee, I think of you. I think of your drink orders & wonder how you’re doing. I think about the wedding I missed, that birthday, the anniversary of the day we lost Peter. I miss asking about your partners and saying, “Pass along my greetings to Mark.” “Tell Jill and Bradley hi!”. I miss being a part of your routines, little stops along your day. I miss checking on you on the hard days - I miss trying to be a bright spot for you.
Know that as I steam my milk and pull my shot, I am sending you love. I hope you catch it. I hope you pull it in tight, and let it feed those wild hearts of yours.
Grateful for the memories that tether us together. Grateful for you.
💕 Christine
(And sweet Jon)
