Hey Everyone...(is this on? is anyone reading??) Just wanted to post that I have gotten my plane ticket home so I am FOR SURE going to be home on Feb. 19th. The past few weeks have been really emotional saying goodbye to the other teachers one by one. Gail and myself are the only 2 left from our team. Gail is staying on another month to help with the transition. So, we don't have kids here this month. I have just been working office hours on some preparation for the teachers coming next year. It seems really surreal that someone will be coming in and starting the journey I just completed all over. I think it will be easier for them in a lot of ways. (we blazed some trails here).
I don't even know if I can even put into words what this year has meant to me. I think it may take me some time away from this to really be able to look at the experience as a whole. Of course, now that it is over, it is easy to forget about all the nights I cried and all the times I was thisclose to calling the airline and just coming home. But, I am so proud of myself for finishing what I started.
I will start the packing process this weekend. Hopefully, everything will fit! Thank you all so much for your prayers in the past year for myself and my family. God has been really good. I know that He will now provide for me in Charlotte. He is faithful and good. Please keep in touch via my email m_elizabeth_gray@yahoo.com. Peace.
