A new season, a new country

It has been a long while since I've posted. I blame having to work and pay bills for that. :p

As some of you know, I submitted an application to MissionNannys.org. Last week I was informed that I was approved to be a part of this amazing program. Currently I am praying about which family I feel God is leading me to, and although I have some preferences on which location I may go, discerning where it is that God wants me has proven to be a lot more difficult than I had anticipated.

I would greatly appreciate your prayers as I continue searching for the best fit. This is not a decision I have come to lightly, and although I am beyond thrilled, the terror of leaving the states for an undetermined length of time to go to an entirely unfamiliar place with a whole new culture is a little bit dizzying. The flip-side is this: I AM SO EXCITED. Really. I have on multiple occasions spontaneously happy-danced around my house. This has been something I've wanted to do since I got home from Bluefields when I was 15. Missions have always had a hold on my heart, and this opportunity was too fantastic to let pass by.

So, that's a quick update on what has been going on in my life. If you have any questions about the program, or have any advice for me concerning traveling for a longer length of time, please send me a message. I am open to any good pointers and tips that may help me figure this whole process out!

Thank you, all! :)
