Today is my last full day.
wow... it really hasn't hit me. lol. I have gotten everything pretty much set. This last week I have had so many good byes, its kinda numbing. My brother is now married! to my new amazing sister Shannon! I said good bye to them, and then my sisters Monday! Tuesday I went to pray and say good bye to PA! then went to say good bye to my grandmas :) that night the high school girls surprised me with a good bye party! I love you girls! then Wednesday I said good bye to the college group, I will miss you all! I have also said good bye to other people, cutters friends, and all the church staff! there is just alot to take in, I am so excited for this trip and to just see how it will all unfold.
Through all this there has just been some amazing support from two very Godly people. My Dad has just been there, comforted me and taken care of alot of the detaily thing I just am not good at doing. He is such an amazing Dad and I have no words that can describe how great he has been through all of this! My Mom... I don't even know really how to phrase it to make it perfect. But my mom is one of the most loving, caring, and humble people I know. She has done so much for me for this trip that cant be explained. She has made me clothes, taken care of supplies, gotten more things then i need haha but has just taken care of me so much! I am so grateful, even though i know with this stress I do not always show it. I love both of my parents so much, and we have for sure gone through alot this past year. I couldn't ask for any other parents and even through the really hard times they always point me to the one person I need to go to, God! Its been hard, but if they were not there it would be so much harder! Thank you!
And thank you all, it maybe a while till I can get Internet and update you all. lol the 7 followers i have now! woot woot! tell others they can look for updates here, I will not be able to write everything, and i would love it if you would not comment about names or locations and how I maybe doing at so and so place haha. I will try to keep this updated at best I can.
Blessings to all,

Hilary, Thanks for sharing. Tears are streaming down my face as I remember how hard it was to say good bye. How it seemed like the end. The numbness does go away with all the new friends you will make.
ReplyDeleteMy parents were super helpful too. You will be surprised how helpful they are even when you are gone, mine have been. And I know your parents are wonderful so they will be a strong support to you. Remember to rely on them still when you need them.
Thanks for sharing Hilary. Sometimes as a Dad you never really know. Love you.
