Update

It has been a while! I have good news! Lots of good news! First thing first: Today I ran five miles in 55 minutes! I can not believe it. I remember when I was running for just a minute and then taking walking for a minute. It feels good to have come so far! The other good news is that I am official going back to Brasil!!! I will be taking classes at UFRRJ in a city called Nova Iguacu which is in the state of Rio de Janeiro! Pretty exciting! My classes start August 16. I do not have a ton of details but I will be living across the street from the university! Let's just pray that I can get my visa!

I'm grateful....

Lately I have just been floored with how blessed I am...really it is unbelivable. One specific blessing I am grateful for is my Mom. I have this awful habit of taking on too much and thinking that I can do everything at once. Who saves me every time? That would be my mom and that is no different story today. If it were not for my mom helping me out with the kids I nanny and going to be watching for the next two weeks I would be out of a job or not able to attend any of my classes for two weeks. MOM...I LOVE YOU!
