Hard to Say Goodbye!

The group from UBC has been here a full 9 days now and counting. They are all scheduled to depart tomorrow. Some as early as 5:30 am and the rest by 1:30pm. It looks like all will go well, and they will actually take off. You would think we would be so ready for them to go....just to get back to a normal routine. But, I am sad to see them leave. It has been so wonderful having them here. They have helped us so much and have gone above and beyond to take care of us. UBC is very blessed to have Jason Gadman on staff. He is wonderful! I wish Sterling could have worked with him at UBC. The students have been so sweet and worked so hard. It is hard to believe they are graduating. The sponsors.....well I can't say enough. They happen to be some of our very favorite Texans. I hope all the UBC students and student workers get to come see us eventually. We did not realize just how much we missed all of them, until we had some of them back with us again!
We had a fun night tonight with everyone at Dave & Busters. We are all so tired. I feel like I am running on fumes.....I can't imagine how Sterling must feel, because he was running on fumes before they arrived. He never stops working. He is amazing. I am so blessed. My girls were so sweet with everyone and enjoyed all the love and attention. I have two precious girls. I just feel so blessed. God is so good. I can never get over how GOOD God IS!
I will post pictures soon of the work done this past week. The children were in awe when they saw the nursery this morning. It was worth all the hard work, just to see the looks on their faces.

I am sitting in the airport right now and i decided to check in and read your blog. Almost made me cry in the middle of JFK. It is so hard to say goodbye but it is absolutely beautfiul to watch you and your family dwelling in the center of God's will! I am so glad that God took you to Farmingdale! You will always be a part of my life!! LOVE YOU ALL!!!!!
