Wrapping up Year One in Kenya

The time has flown and we're already winding down at the end of the school year. Today we had that elementary school talent show and a yearbook assembly. We've got five more days left in the school year, then it's summer break.

This school year has been a whirlwind- in some ways I'm happy to see it come to a close, but in other ways I wish time could just slow  down a little bit. There are friends and students who won't be here next year, but I'm so thankful for knowing them and being able to spend an incredible year together.

If you're wondering what's next for me, I'll be making a little stop in Ireland on my way back to the States. Get ready for many pictures of castles, cliffs, and cottages. In the meantime, I've been watching Irish-themed movies to prepare for the trip. 

I'll spend the majority of my summer in Wauchula. I'm looking forward to eating at the taco stand, Bowling Alley, and Wuachula Family Restaurant for a cuban. I'm sure I'll spend a lot of time in the sun, reading or scoping out Pinterest and education blogs for 2nd grade ideas.

At the end of July I'll be flying back to Kenya for Year Two. I'm so excited and grateful that God has opened this door.
