I'm not good at goodbyes.

So its Christmas break.  Most everyone is excited and ready to come home.  And trust me I am one of those people.  Not being home since July is setting in and I am ready for it.  But if I could have one thing in the world it would be to take my residents and the residents on our brother hall in my suitcase.  All day i've been checking out residents and i've been so good at holding strong and not crying but tonight I had to say to bye to my little and one of the boys and then i went to my room and began to cry.  I just love them so much and they are such a blessing to me and such a joy that its weird to think that they are leaving for break.  Now normally this would seem silly and a little ridiculous but these freshmen (for lack of better classifying term) have become so important to me and such an important part of my life.  I have loved watching them grow and be challenged and struggle and laugh with me a each other.  Its amazing what God has done and I feel so incredibly blessed to have been apart of it.  I know its for a short time and really I will see them so soon...but I will just miss them.  So much.

So this is to you my dear residents.  I love you with my whole heart and Cant wait until January 5th when i get here and wait in anticipation for you.  :)
