In four days, Katie will be heading to Colombia. She will be teaching teachers of English at a university there. She will be gone for about ten months. I will miss her terribly but am proud of her and hope she has a wonderful adventure.
Katie has been teaching ESL in Baltimore since she graduated from college and most recently has been mentoring other teachers in that field. She has had the desire to do something like this for a long time so it is a dream come true in many ways. It is also a hard time to leave her many close friends and us for such a long time. She hesitated as the final decision needed to be made, but felt at peace to go ahead.
We hope to visit with her at least once while she is there. Hopefully Daniel will be able to go with us at the same time. She will have other visitors too which will help the time go more quickly.
Thank heavens for Skype. We understand it enough to get by.
We have to let go so much especially in relation to our adult children.
I hope she has a wonderful time! I know she will be a great help to many people!
