It is Friday morning right now. It is hard to believe the week is coming to an end. Today we will have a going away party. I'm sure there are going to be many tears. We have come to love so many students here and they have come to love us. I have five students that I've adopted and call me their American mom. They are all so very lovely.
Most of the students have given themselves American names. I say "American names" loosly. For example, one of my new friends is named CAT MILK. The students I spend most of my time with are Mikiko, Kristy, Polly, Whyee, and Cat Milk. These are the students that hosted Jon and I on Tuesday night. Each day they come and find us and ask if we have any free time and what we want to do. They are quick to offer to take us. And everyday they tell us how sad they will be when we leave.
The students are so kind and generous. They make us little hand written notes and tell us how happy we make them and that they are glad that we came. They ask when we will be coming back.
The next two days are going to be our hardest days emotionally. It is going to be VERY HARD to say good bye. Would you please pray for us? I have already seen every member of this team cry this week.
God's blessing to you! We can't wait to tell you more in person and show you all the wonderful photos!
Christ's Love,
Lynette
