My Family.

My family has become a group of random people from around the world who I live near, work with, and do everything else together with. We only have each others so together we often eat, talk, cry, laugh, play, pray, work, shop, everything you can think of. The hard part is that these are transient volunteers who are only here for 3-6 months. You get SO close, and then they leave. And then another leaves, and another. In the last couple of weeks, I just did airport runs and sad goodbyes for 4 different people. So feeling a bit down. But then new volunteers come (a few next week) and you do it all over again. One thing we like to do is have theme dinners together, like Greek food night. This happened to be when the German's cooked a nice cheesy German dish for us all!
