Birthdays and Leaving





well well, we got our visas! Yay! We should by flying out sometime next week. I can't wait to get to Naples and join the team. So exciting. I don't want to say goodbye though. I might not be good at goodbyes. I'm good at just leaving though.... but I won't. haha.
Emily ( my niece ) had her 5th birthday this past Saturday. She celebrated by having a tea party birthday party. It was a blast and she and her friends thought the same, as the pictures show.
and tomorrow is my birthday!!!! I'm getting old. But embracing it!
They have started to cut the sugarcane in town and I've decided it will be bittersweet to say goodbye to it. I sure hate the stink that comes from the sugar mills and I hate the mess that comes from all the tractors. BUT this stinky, muddy town is home and I'll miss it. I guess I can't complain too much since I am moving to Italy!
PRAY for my time management this week, as I get final time in with friends and family. And I need to be packing and finishing up things at home.
