I only have a few weeks left in this town before
I uproot and move to a big city I've never set
foot in before. How are you, friend? Are you
experiencing any transitions? They are a big
part of life for everyone it seems.

But I am feeling optimistic and excited about it.
I am feeling incredibly blessed to have had the
opportunity to live in this town and study Music
Therapy over the past four years and get to know
and invest in so many wonderful people. I am
overwhelmed with wonder to realize that I will
be missed. Maybe that's strange to say, but
there's just something about realizing that your
life matters to real people to make you feel small
and overly blessed.

I had my last piano lessons with two sisters I have
been teaching for almost 3 years. Those girls have
become like little sisters to me. I'm taking them
out for ice cream on Tuesday and I can't wait. I
went to a movie with Kristi and Naomi last night and
it was a great time, as always with those girls. I
will miss them so much.

Who will I meet in Cleveland? What will it be like?
How long until I will feel comfotrable there? Will it
be more exciting or scary?

"But thanks be to God, who always leads us in triumphal
procession in Christ and through us spreads everywhere
the fragrance of the knowledge of him. For we are to
God the aroma of Christ among those who are being saved
and those who are perishing."
--2 Corinthians 1:14
