You have been a beautiful friend to me.
Walking away from hugging you, I looked at the sunset and mountains and starting crying because I wouldn’t mind staying here forever.
Your hugs, your cheek kisses, you tickling me and wrestling me, and telling me you love me over and over… I will miss it all until I come back.
You are going to do crazy amazing things in this world. I wholeheartedly believe you will be Ethiopia’s President one day. God has big things for your life and don’t dream up anything less.
You are the sweetest soul and the most affectionate kid I’ve met. Thank you for running to me and giving me big hugs and resting your head on my shoulder.
Sweet Malessa, I will be praying for you every single day.
My friend, I love you.
