[ Time of Change ]

Well, there is not much going on around here! Okay, that was a joke. The days are running fast together and there is not much for resting around here. The school year has 15 days left and I am attempting to squash in as much learned as possible in between the field trips, music practices, sports finals, and everything else that comes with being a teacher.

It is hard to believe that soon I will be leaving back to the States too. Adding that to the mix does not help! Attempting to squash your life into suitcases is not very easy. It takes a special skill, which I have been getting very good practice at! I am so very excited to see friends and family, but am deeply saddened to even think about leaving my beloved country...the country which I have dreamed about living at for years. I am learning to let go and focus on what God has for me in the future. And I truly believe that this is the correct path for me even though it is the hardest path right now. I know that being in the States for a while will give me an opportunity to start up my non-profit, get some extra education in the areas I need, and be able to live a constant, stable life for the first time in my life. And I am excited about that!

I know that when the time is right, I will be back to Kenya permanently and when I do come ... watch out, I will make a dent in this poverty and hunger. Until then, I am going to live in the States and share God's word to those around me....making a dent in the US of A.

See you all in a few weeks!
