Hello!
Wow! Today is May the 4th already, where has time gone?
I believe the countdown to Germany is around 87 days or so! I am getting so excited!
When I last wrote to you I had yet to move out of my house- and now I have been for a few days already. Living with another family has been absolutely amazing! You don't realize how many family traits you miss when living with a couple of friends. Every night we sit down and eat supper together! That in itself has been great. I loved the chatter around the dinner table tonight as we had spaghetti and strawberry spinach salad. Siblings were joking around with each other, parents were asking about everyones days - I had missed this!
God has been so good to me! He always has been but I have noticed it quite a bit lately, as I should more on a regular basis. I have been a little concerned about finances for Germany lately - don't get me wrong - IKNOW and trust He will provide, it's just hard being patient and waiting as the countdown is on. He has shown me even in the past few days not to fret - with things like gas/rent/dentist bills being miraculously paid for!
I like being independent and not having to ask people for help, which isn't always a bad thing - but God has been teaching me lately that sometimes He provides through other people. Sometimes trusting God means that we understand He will provide, but in His own timing , and in His own way.
I have loved getting to know the other girls going to BFA this fall! It seems more real when you talk to others who are going through some of the same things you are as moving to another country doesn't happen overnight.
Tonight I went and helped one of my youth girls study for her biology midterm tomorrow. Apparently I knew less about Science 10 then I thought??? Just when we thought we had Osmosis down pat... we came along diffusion which threw us for a loop! While I am glad I am not back in high school, I had fun coming up with analogies that would help her remember and understand concepts, for at least tomorrows test :)
For now - Gute Nacht!

The countdown is on, that's for sure!! Looking forward to meeting you next month and then moving to Germany together in August!
