This weekend and the coming month will be all about closure. We have enjoyed sharing meals with wonderful friends we have made in FW and family we have lived near for the last almost 20 years. It is a bitter sweet time. Everyone has been so supportive and we love you all. I thought I could blog about some of the emotions, but now I am not sure. It is so emotional to have so many nice things said and written about you. I believe we as humans are in part a compilation of the people we meet. So it is because of our family and friends that we are who we are and can embark on this adventure with confidence that we can make a difference. Those who have said they admire us, you are with us, those who have and continue to pray for us, you are with us and those who have encouraged us, you are with us too.
We couldn't do this alone. We will carry with us a book made by the first grade teacher I volunteer for, a calendar of pictures of my quilt retreat, a calendar of family pictures and a heart pin "filled with all of you!" So whether or not you WANT to go, you ARE going with us!!
