I think this is my first post about how I feel about things...
So this week so far has been a little rough...I am missing everyone from back home and everything I see or do reminds me of something of home. At school, we talked about food that we missed from home, and who will be going home for the holidays...My friends here ask I will be going home for Christmas, what I am going to do for Halloween and Thanksgiving...I get invites and messages from people at back in the states about Halloween parties, baptisms that I will be missing...and all of this has me thinking...
Everyday I look at pictures of the little ones in my life and I wonder how much they have grown...what they have done at school today, what thing they did for the first time, or what they had for lunch or why they cried before going to bed...I think about the new ones that I haven't seen yet and wonder what they look like...what their little giggles might sound like...I wonder when the next time I will her the excited little voices scream "Auntie Kim!" or when I will be able to come home...
The other day I got a letter from my grandma rudy and I knew it would be a good day....I got a late birthday card from my friend Miss Meliss and I started to cry...I got a halloween card from my mom and it made me laugh...And then in the end I just miss all three of them.
I miss everyone and I hope you all know that. I think about your all often and I don't want you to feel sorry for me...I chose to be here and I am happy and I am in great hands, but it hasn't been all smiles and dreams...I have my bad days too. It has been an adventure...A roller coaster of sorts. One that is fun at times and fricken scary at others...one that has lots of turns and sometimes gets turned upside down. That's life right. We all get on this rollercoaster. I just chose to get on one that happens to be a little further from home...
Anyway... it's Halloween this Saturday and I have no idea what I am going to be...any suggestions?!?!?!?
Love you! Miss you!
