Really?

Yes really. We leave here in 2 weeks. Some days it feels like the day just goes on and on and 2 weeks is the longest time in the world. But other days you know how quickly 14 days is going to go. Especially since we now have to start telling the kids we are leaving soon. We're starting to try and detach ourselves from them. Its hard. Just thinking about it is hard. In so many ways I feel like i am just now getting to know these kids. When I walk in the door the little 3 year olds call out my name. Just yesterday I met two of Matts kids. I met one of Emily's kids this morning too. We've all come to love these kids, even the ones we dont interact with on a daily basis. We've lived right along side all of them for 5 weeks now and leaving these kids for who knows how long is so much more than just a hug, an adios, and a kiss blown. Part of our heart stays here with them, part of our lives stay here with them.

Pray for us as we start the countdown of leaving Casa Bernabe, but more importantly pray for the dear kids here. Its not easy when people leave, and though many of them are too young to get to attached, so many of them are old enough to get very attached. We love them so much and leaving them confused as to why we are leaving is the last thing we want to do.

see you in just a couple weeks :)
