May 14th - May 15th: Day One Hundred Two

You'd think after twenty-one years I'd realize when my alarm was set for PM instead of AM. As a result, I missed the market today. This just gives me something to do next Sunday instead. It'll be a nice break from studying for finals (which I plan on starting this week). So instead I worked on homework, completed a section in one of my workbooks and enjoyed the day. Our last two 'house mates' moved in today so now there are a total of 6 of us including Blanca. That's the most that I've seen here!! Six teenagers + one bathroom = interesting....

Blanca made me almost tear up tonight too. We were sitting at dinner talking about the activities the boys have planned with their program. After she listed off all of their dates she turned to me and said that I'll be leaving on the 28th. She the cupped my face in her hands and gave me a kiss on the forehead. I commented that it was sad and she replied with "It's only sad for me; you get to see your boyfriend, your parents and your friends." Which was when my heart broke a little. I really am going to miss her!

XOXO,
Carol

  1. I am now crying!....you must tell her it is also sad for you because she has become a special person in your life and has touched you in lots of many ways! I truly love this woman I have never personally met myself....she is a very loving person and I think the two of you have a unique and special connection that she doesn't get or have with just any of the other students....you really must keep in touch with her and try to go back to her some day! Chessa is laying here with me and I really can't wait to see what she does when you get here! I can't stop thinking about you coming home and how happy we are going to be...unfortunately it will be at Blanca's expense and I really feel sorry for her....you are a beautiful and loving person and it has to hurt watching you leave...I know how it felt...(not as a mom)...! Tomorrow Emily turns 15 and her supper pick is Shady Maple...if you have a chance...send her a birthday wish! Love you and miss you! Love Momm
