As I sit here on a borrowed computer in a hotel in Atlanta, I find myself with too much to say, and yet nothing that seems to make sense as I start typing. Our team has shared everything from clothes and toothpaste to laughter and tears. We have bonded over new experiences in a foreign country, and have come back with a bigger picture of the amazing God we serve. I know by now the stories are starting to spill out to family and friends. The mixed reactions and emotions of coming home are catching up with me, and leaving the community of our small team is bittersweet.

     To the parents: thank you for blessing me with the opportunity to lead your daughters. I have seen them grow in so many ways, and it's been a wonderful (and humbling) experience.

     To my girls: goodbye, lovelies! Thanks for sharing this part of your life with me. I am praying for you, and can't wait to hear what God continues to do in your lives. Tan Creasy!
