A Day of Good thank you letter to my fans!

I have no words right now. Well, I do have two. Thank you!!

Maybe I'll try and come up with a few more :) You guys are incredible!! My twin sister and I have a birthday today but to me, this day is yours, not mone. I was so busy while I was in Finland that I barely had time to meet my Finnish fans, but you found the ways and means to reach me with birthday presents. And you international fans all over the world have also done amazing things and given such a wonderful present to the children of the world that for once in my life, I'm speechless!

Thank you for the beautiful, unique painting by my favorite artist Lucas Vitek with my favorite picture! How on earth did you get it to me from the Czech Republic!! Only I've already managed to break the glass in spite of the bubble wrap. Please don't be mad, I wasn't able to prevent it :( The painting is fine, it's only the glass that's broken! Luckily it's easy to replace, and anyway shards are good luck, haha :) You can see the lines in the picture. They're pretty well placed though, they almost fit, ha :) But I promise I'll get the glass replaced. I'm just relieved the painting is fine in spite of me being in charge of it!! Thank you!!

And thank you for the amazing necklace. My new favorite!! I'll definitely wear it!! It's amazing! And it's Finnish design jewelry, it's so nice to show off Finnish things overseas. And the necklace is straight from the painting! And I've gotten so many amazing drawings and messages. You guys are wonderful!!

The way you've raised money for charity makes me especially happy. You've raised more than 2000 dollars for Unicef just because I was born, haha ;) It's probably the most beautiful thing anyone's ever done to commemorate my existence. And people from all over the world have participated!! It's hard for this Finnish boy to even comprehend something like this. THANK YOU!!

There's a letter for you from the director of Unicef UK, David Bull, who says ”TO ALL SAULI KOSKINEN FANS” that you've made an impact on a lot of children's lives. I'm sure you have. Thank you for that. I can't think of anything more important in this world than children.

Over the years, you've made an impact on my life as well!! I'm a constant recipient of your charity, haha :) I wish I could give back as much as you give me. You'd deserve it. I'll follow your example and try to take some steps towards making the world a better place!! At the very least, from now on my birthday will be a day of charity and showing consideration for others. You've made it so, by commemorating my birthday in this way and spreading good to children around the world!! It's not just my birthday, and not just a regular good day, but a Day of Good, hah :) Thanks to you!!

I'm working on my birthday, shooting the TV show, and I'm going to try and sleep tonight, ha :) Believe me, I will blog more as soon as my life gets a little less busy. This blog is something I do just for you, and it's the least I can do for you. You're magnificent!!

Back to shooting, we have a long day ahead of us even though we started early.

Happy Day of Good!!

xoxo
