4 Months Later

I've been home from Africa for more than 4 months now and thought it was about time for a real update on my life. I'm not sure if any of my faithful blog readers even check this anymore since I have updated so little in recent months.

I have one semester left of college. Two more nursing classes and I'm a college graduate. I have mixed feelings, of course. Part of me is ready and excited to see what the future holds, and another part will be sad to see this chapter of my life end. It's been such a great chapter. :)

I'm planning on spending some time in South Africa this summer. I thought maybe that feeling of wanting to be there more than anything else would go away with time...but it hasn't. I do, however, feel certain that God is calling me to come back to the U.S. at the end of the summer (probably before August since I have several friends getting married in August). I've been praying that He would lead me wherever it is that He wants me to go and that His will would be my will. In the meantime, I'm trying to be patient, not get ahead of myself, and just enjoy the time I have left in school.
