And Aubery Was Her Name...: How Did I Make It This Far Without You!?!?

Today is July 26th (happy birthday Daddy) and exactly 6 months ago I said so long, farewell to my best friend and then two weeks later to my other best friend! I cannot believe all that has happened these past 6 months and how fast it went. It really does seem like just yesterday I was looking up Brazil facts, watching gossip girl and pillow talking with Hanns and it really does seem like just yesterday that I was talking to Kati on the phone for hours about the mission, eating pop tarts together at Meredith and sleeping on her floor. To be honest I didn't think I'd make it without them, or at least do as well as I have done.

I really thought I'd be a complete and total emotional wreck when they both left, but I made it! YES it was hard, yes there were tears, yes I did feel empty and yes I'd NEVER repeat February EVER again, but I made it and they've made it out in the mission field for 6 months. They are both being the best possible missionaries in Salvador, Brazil and Asuncion, Paraguay. I've missed, thought, and prayed about them each 187.5 days they've been gone, but I TRULY know that they are were they are suppose to be and where the Lord needs them most! They are changing lives, every minute of everyday. Yes I am 3,00% excited to see my besties but apart of me wants them to never come home because I know how much they are loving it and how many lives are better each day because of their presence, BUT all good things must come to an end.

It is SUPER crazy that they come home NEXT summer... I don't want to say that is irrelevant to me... but I am not counting down to next summer but to Spring 2013! Through it all I could not be happier to joining these two girls and become apart of the South American Sisterhood!
