I was very fortunate to get to go home for Thanksgiving. I have not been back to Dublin since August so it was nice to be home for a couple of days. This Thanksgiving was wonderful!!! The Bouchers always celebrate Thanksgiving on Thursday and this year all of Dad's siblings came which is the first time this has happened in a really long time. It was a wonderful chance to get to spend some time catching up with everyone.
However, it has been really hard for me to be back in Levelland now. I just want to be back at home spending time with my family. I know that I have a purpose here and that God is using me to be a witness to these kids, I have already built some great relationships with students from last year. But it is still hard being so far away from my family. It just makes me stop and think about John Mark and Jessica and how they are a whole ocean away. That has to be so hard. But it is like Dad said we can't put our family before God so we need to go where he leads us even if that is far away from our families. The good thing for me is that in two more weeks I will be at home again with my family!!
I hope that you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving and that it was a wonderful time for you to get to spend time with your family.
