Okay... so I am the sappy one of the 5 of us because I am the first one who has been feeling homesick for my family and friends. I am not depressed or having a horrible time, I just want to hang out with some of my friends and have a cup of coffee(Biggby sugar bear never sounded soooooo good). Beautiful gate is amazing and I am loving all the kids. I like going out with the play groups and just hugging the kids and getting some of their wet sloppy kisses all over my face. It is such a blessing to be here and know that I can in some small way, make the kids' day a little brighter. I feel like I want to just have some of my friends or sisters or moms to share it with, in person (Bryan is wonderful, but it is nice to have a girl to talk to sometimes). I don't feel like I want to go home, I just want to ship some of you here to share this with me and carry some of the burden with me because it is a blessing to serve here, but it is not always an easy load to carry. I know I'll make friends here, it just takes time :) I love all of my wonderful friends who will be reading this and I am thankful that there is facebook and skype because it makes a big difference.
Blessings,
Anita
Oh Friend!!! I so wish I could have a coffee (and a run...but maybe not at the same time!) with you too! I will pray that you will meet some amazing women that you can have some "girl time" with! Sending you lots of love!!
