To those of you who check this blog regularly, I apologize for not updating it much in the last couple months. The reasons for it are two-fold. First, I was very busy wrapping up the school year and helping prepare for next year. Second, the dominican electricity fried my charger and my battery, so I did not have regular access to my computer.
So, I am home. Well, one of my homes. I am back in the United States for four weeks. I am so excited to be home, to have the opportunity to spend time with family and friends and share my experiences in the DR with them. I am also thankful for the break. Although I love living in the DR, and now that I have been gone for about a week, I am starting to miss my other home, I was definitely ready for some rest and 'American normalcy'. Sometimes I feel like the time in the DR flew by and other times, when I think about everything that happened, I feel like I have lived a year's worth of life in six months. I am hoping that while I am home I can really step back and look at everything that has happened and see the lessons that God was teaching me and prepare myself for going back refreshed and ready to serve Him in the DR for another year.
Thank you all for your interest in my mission, for your prayers, and for your support as I serve God in the Dominican Republic. I appreciate it more than you can know. (And I promise to try to update more regularly :)
