I have waited for this day all of my life...I am so very excited to see, learn and grow doing the Lords work! My day started at 5:30am getting up. Packing my last minute things. Putting on my NICE suit, white shirt and one of my favorite ties! (cuz we all know I like ties) Slip my feet into my ecco shoes that look so very nice right now. Rolling out to the car my two grey suitcases and my back pack on my back! I TOTALLY look like a MISSIONARY! My family took me to the Toledo Express airport to start my 2 year journey! Some of my family member were: OF course MY MOM!!!! She is the best! MY dad too...all my siblings plus Paolo and Grandma, Grandpa, Aaron & Shannon & Hank. It was my first time getting ready to fly I was only nervous because I do get car sick sometimes. But so excited to experience my very first flight. The good byes were very sweet. My mom cried ALOT!!!! My family stayed and watched until the plane took off. And of course she is tracking my flights on the internet!
