I take a deep breath and hold back the tears as I tell you that I have decided to stay another year. This decision was so tough and for all involved in listening to my irrational rants and praying for me, I am truly grateful. For nearly a year, I was absoultely sure that I could and would only live here for two years and then life happens...I still miss home so much that I question why I am here but I also have fallen in love with this country. With the beauty, the language (!), the people and the customs. Life here on earth is short and for the time, I need and want to be here.
The hardest part of me being here is missing the people who are not here. It would seem that the birthdays, weddings and babies are just some of the events that I have to accept I will not be part of (at least not in person). So this week as my oldest friend (not in age but in length of friendship) gave birth to her second baby boy, highlighting the reality and magnitude of my decision to be away from England...I just wish I could have my cake and eat it. To live life here and there. And on that note, i have just four words...Thank God for Facebook.
Above is a pic of the gorgeous little Oliver!

P.S Went away to a small town on outskirts of BA and a few times was reminded of the beautiful homeland...here is one of those moments...
