First of the Goobyes

With my car up for sale and some goodbyes already taking place, it's starting to feel more real that I will actually be leaving. I am beginning to believe less in goodbyes and more in see you laters. Goodbyes feel so definite, and one thing I have learned is that life is unexpected and crazy-beautiful. Also, I am realizing that one chapter of my life may be ending but another one is just beginning. It's a crazy book my life has been writing and I can only imagine what future chapters might hold. Looking back over the last 2 years, I have learned, changed, and grown in ways I never thought possible. I have dealt with things that a younger and more naive me would have ran away from screaming. I have grown as a teacher, a leader, a friend, an aunt, a daughter and ultimately an important piece of my family. I look forward to what the next few years will bring, but first must focus on this next year. I do have to acknowledge those who have helped me become who I am, I couldn't have done without all of you fabulous people. I feel truly fortunate to have so many people who are support me on this crazy adventure I am about to embark on!
