Everyone is leaving :(



So, Rebecca and Alex are leaving tomorrow.....so sad. I've really enjoyed all the volunteers and seeing them go is difficult after being roommates for several months. Alex has been entertainment with his silly tactics, his funny impressions and his adrenaline rush risk taking that has put all of our BPM's well above healthy levels. Rebecca has been joy incarnate. She is full of life and brings sunshine where ever she goes, her heart is gold and I'm going to miss both of them very much.
There farewell dance was sweet because Rebecca loves to dance with these ladies and always joins in whenever they have practice. It was only appropriate for her to jump right in on her farewell dance. Alex too got some good moves in before he left the dance floor - the women went crazy.

As a few leave, more arrive thankfully. Marayah just arrived yesterday, she is going to be here for 10 months as the Volunteer Coordinator. She's wonderful and is perfect for the job! I'm kinda sad that I'm only going to be here for 11 more days, I would've like to have spent more time with her here.
Then, on Monday we get Andrea who will be one of the girls taking my place when I leave - very excited to meet her :)

I've been really busy lately since Randy has left. However, it's been good, I'm loving everything I do here (other than bookkeeping....ugh). As my time here is coming to a close, I'm doing all that I possibly can to soak in the days I have left here. I want to take it all in and continue to take advantage of what God has for me here.
