Joi Gin, Sara!

She did it! Sara left for her 5 mo. adventure in Zhongshan!

She was packed and ready to go Wednesday, so Thursday morning, all her friends came over for a crepe fete. It was lots of fun, lots of crepes, and so fun to see all these kids together. She got a call that her flight had been bumped up a few hours, so we scrambled to throw last minute things together, and headed to the airport. We didn't even get to go for our leisurely last supper out, but I don't think we could have eaten anyway. The little girls struggled saying goodbye---esp. Chloe. She just sobbed. Sara is so good to her. They went with the Winegars while we took Sara. So Mat, Katie, Halle, Joey, and I were the farewell crew. Sara was brave and off she went. We will miss her terribly, but are SO excited for the adventure ahead. She met Breanne in Hong Kong and I am relieved they are together now.
Her email is sara_j_andresen@hotmail.com , and I am quite sure she'd love an email now and then....
