Struggling

I know this is supposed to be a happy blog but I am struggling right now.  Some of my very good friends on island will be leaving soon, as will I, and it is really hard knowing that I may never see them again.  I am also struggling with being away from Dominica and my husband for the summer, well my husband for 5 weeks and Dominica for just over 2 months.  Going to be hard to say goodbye to the awesome friends I have made here that won't be here when I return in September.  I joined Amy, Mitzi and my new friend Liz the other day for a prayer group and it felt really great.  I will have to join them again.  Felt great to talk to them about things going on in my life and know that they are now praying for those people who are struggling in my family.  I truly do love it here in Dominica!  Have made some great friends, who I will always cherish and love!  I can't wait to arrive in NY and then for August to come so Chris is there with us!
