One year ago in a couple of days, I left for Kenya, Africa with Kenya Keys. When I went on this service trip last summer, I don't think I fully understood how much it would affect my life. I miss it everyday. It was difficult, don't get me wrong. There were many many tears shed. It was an emotional roller coaster. But it was worth all of it. I miss those beautiful, perfect African children so much. I am so grateful for the experience that I had there and I cannot wait to return. I wish, more than anything, that I was going back this summer but I have some other priorities with school and teaching.
Next summer, people. Next summer.
I'm currently re-reading all my posts and looking at the beautiful pictures from that incredible trip.
Here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, and here.
(I don't think that's enough posts, do you? Ha).
believe me, you'll want to see them all ;)
My friend posted this video on my Facebook wall today and I started crying. Too perfect.
If I wasn't at work I would watch the vlog, i'll come back.
