Note 5
Padmé,
Thank you for keeping an eye on Anakin. You are such a sweet girl. So the Jedi Council is interviewing him? Please let me know how the interview goes. I wish I could be there for my son to cheer him on, and to encourage him.
I have gotten to know Qui-Gon well. I trust him with my son's life.
Just telling me you care about him a lot means a lot to me. I trust you with him, and I know you are responsible. Yes, since he is 9 years old, he is a little boy to you. It pleases me to know that you feel that Anakin will be very important to you at least for a while. I hope that you are able to stay in contact with him for at least a while longer, like you thought you would. Dear…please, please be careful on Coruscant. I have heard horror stories of some of the darker parts of that planet.
Please, when you see him next tell him I'm all right. I know he's going to be worried about me, and I would rather have him focus on his new life.
Oh…give the Queen my best wishes that the Council will help her with the situation.
If you know anything about what Anakin is doing, you must always tell me.
Thank you for telling me that Anakin misses me. I hope it does not affect him much. I knew this would be hard on him. Anakin has never been away from me like this.
Shmi Skywalker
