While in Peru, I had typed in the tentative date for my return trip to Peru. You know, Peruvians are in the moment people, but they were very adamant that I let them know now when I'll be returning. Of course at that time, there were 330+ days left until I'd be returning. Tonight, when I checked up on it, I was informed that there are 298 days until that date (June 23rd if you're wondering). It seems like a lot, but 298 days sounds so much better than 330 days. Honestly, it even sounds better than 300 days.
Viva el Peru!
As a third grade teacher, your life does revolve around numbers! 100 days, and the countdown until the end of the school year. But this count down is so sweet - the joy you bring to those who anxiously wait your return. Just like Jesus, we anxiously wait His return. Blessings to you this year as you begin a new year!
ReplyDeleteYes Brenda, you are so right! My life as a third grade teacher is filled with countdowns and deadlines.
ReplyDeleteAs excited as I am to return to Peru, I am even more excited to meet my Savior when He returns. Too bad I can't start an official countdown for that day!
We miss you at NPE! I hope you're enjoying your work :)
