Well it has been a busy couple of weeks, with school, traveling, and spending time with so many friends. My kids at school continue to make me laugh and smile. My first grader continue to surprise me with what they say, and or do : ) On Friday we were talking about Christopher Columbus, so I taught them a little rhyme to remember "In four teen hundred ninety two, Columbus sailed the ocean blue" well we sang it a few times then i looked and one of my little girls was doing a little dance. So then I just let all of them do the little dance. It was so funny!
Last weekend the Carolina's took us all over, to visit lots of fun places, it was so great to spend time with them and practice my Spanish haha! I am going to miss my Paraguayan sisters so much!
I also was able to see one of our other previous exchange students. Leticia lived with us about 13 or 14 years ago. So I got together with her and her two daughters late last week. It was so wonderful to reconnect with her and to meet and spend time with her girls.
Then this weekend we were able to go and visit Bob and Carol Givens, good missionary friends of out families. It was so wonderful to see their ministry and spend time with them. When I get to see them it feels like a little piece of home, although I did get really sick at their house and am still not back to myself but hopefully by tomorrow I will be feeling better.
It is so crazy to think that I only have one more week here, until reality hits and this dream ends. This next week is going to be so wonderful, and so hard all at the same time. It will be great spending last moments with everyone but sad as well knowing that almost a week from today I will be flying back to the states. Pray for me this week that I finish strong and handle the transition with wisdom and strength. Thats all for now : )
