Many of my friends were over at the Chapmans last night, and it was great to see everyone one last time. Lots of tears, but lots of laughs, too. I read something I wrote thanking my friends for everything, and I barely got the words out. Tears were streaming down my face before I even stood up to speak, but somehow I sniffled through it!
I have so much more to say about Liberia and will continue to post as my journey continues in the states. Thanks again to everyone who made this trip possible, and thanks again to my Liberian family. You will forever be in my heart.
there's something I want to tell you
that I'm not sure how to say
words are going to fail me
but I wrote this anyway
and I struggled to form the letters
that spelled what's in my heart
cause love's a language that can't be written
but I hope this is a start
you've made my time here special
in a million different ways
and made me feel welcome
from my first to my last days
you've shown me how I want to live
you taught me who God made me to be
I'm sad because I'm going to miss
being part of your family
thanks for all the joy we've shared
and the hard times you've seen me through
thank you all for all you've done
this is making me sad even though I'm excited you're coming back!
