Saying Goodbye again

It's official. I'm terrible with goodbyes. I mean seriously, you'd think it'd get easier...nope...

Last Thursday I had to say goodbye to Natalie and that was hard enough but then this morning we bid farewell to the Rohrers and wow, I just lost it! It's unbelievable how much they all have come to mean to me and it was so hard to see them go. The last three weeks have been a blast, a huge blessing from God and it was amazing.  I'm so thankful for all the fun times we had from working in the kitchen to volleyball to late night card games in the classroom.

It felt so odd today not having them around. I kept thinking momentarily that they were still here and then I'd miss them  more and everyone kept asking me if I was okay because I looked a little down and then I would get all emotional again...probably had something to do with staying up all night and therefore being incredibly tired...

As hard as it is to say goodbye, I know it's all in God's plan. I'm excited to continue working on the book and a few other projects for the school and just see how God works through the rest of the summer. It has already been so different than I ever imagined. My God is truly amazing. What a comfort to know that He has a plan, the ultimate plan and to rest in the assurance of His love. I have seen Him working in my own life so much and directing me so clearly; I feel inexpressibly blessed to be His child.
