It's a sunny Monday morning here in Quito. I just got back from my yoga class and had some time to scribble out some thoughts.
Yesterday some fellow CEC teachers and I celebrated the 4th of July together. It was a pretty great and typical 4th of July gathering, including things like meat, beer, pasta salads, potato salad and the ever-heavenly 7 Layer Dip.
But now it's Monday and I have a full work week to look forward to. Sigh... which bring me to my next thought:
I think I'm ready to be done with this teaching/Ecuador experience. I feel like I'm winded and dragging my feet to the finish line. It has been an epic year, full of ups and downs. But I am tired and craving familiar things and people and missing my good friends from home. I'm even contemplating moving my flight to an earlier date. I have 9 actual teaching days left and I will make it...
If you have any words of encouragement, I will gladly take them.

Oh my love. I can't even express to you how proud of you I am. You have taken so many big steps this year. I am so looking forward to seeing you and getting to know the woman you are becoming. I hope you know that there are legions of people here that think of you and pray for you daily. Be well!!
