goodbye so soon

It's hard to believe but it's time to say goodbye. again.
I feel like this pattern may continue in my life for awhile.

It has been a wonderful month+ at home with my family and friends. I think I got almost everything done on my list...including seeing a whole heap of people.

So after a whirlwind of SALT re-entry retreat, family vacation at the lake, eating out, going to church, visiting friends, friends and more friends in Pennsylvania, checking in with the extended family, stopping by the beach, buying some fresh clothes, eating good summer abundance, taking care of my niece, visiting the doctor & the dentist, baking with my sisters, catching up on a stockpile of books, and getting lots of sleep--I think it is safe to say I made the most of my time in the states :)







While I can't say I feel ready to say goodbye to my family, I think that I am ready to get back into a routine. I am anxious to begin another phase of the journey. Excited to take the next steps into the unknown and start a new job...build new relationships...and explore new parts of Honduras.

It was great to see all of you that I saw. To those who I missed, (mostly my Canadian family and far-flung friends) I hope to catch up with you soon!!!

Thank you all for your love, prayers and support. Whether it was a meal we shared together, a good phone conversation, or a note of encouragement, it has refreshed me greatly.

I plan to keep blogging, right here. so don't change your bookmark :)
Today is my last day in Ohio and tomorrow I'll be leaving for Honduras (flight @ 7am!).
Be back to the blog soon!
