Yesterday I drove back to Arkansas. I'm excited to be back but at the same time missing being at home. I had a great month at home. I always enjoy going home and seeing everyone. This summer I was around a lot of mothers since I watched kids all summer. It was interesting to hear their conversations about saving for their kids colleges, how schooling is going for their kids, someones child's new little "trick" and so on. I guess this is what I have to look for to when I have my 2.5 kids.
I can not wait til next summer. The week before I left some of the teenage girls came up to me and were bummed out because they really didn't have a place to hang out this summer. Even though they had camp and a mission trip to Honduras they wanted to do things through the other weeks too. Me and another girl told them that next summer we promise that if we came home we would do things with them so they could get a group together with an "adult presence". I use to not like being around middle and high schoolers but now I really enjoy it. It is fun to watch them grow and learn to deal with life. There is a really good group of kids at our church and I pray that they can really grow in the Lord and each other. So hopefully everything will work out and my friend and I can give these girls a chance to hang out together. I'm really looking forward to it!
Well I better go unpack! Tonight we have church and hopefully will have a good group of new people show up. I have to say I'm really excited about this year and being with the UCC group!
