I Cant Believe It
Well, I am almost home! I just wanted to write one more post before heading home. This week was exam week, and I just got finished today. It was stressful for awhile, but I finally got it finished, and I feel really good about my tests. I can’t believe I am almost home. Part of me feels like I have been gone forever, and another part feels like it hasn’t been almost 4 months yet. I have started packing everything up, and tomorrow I will get the rest taken care of. I think Gracia is getting sad that we are leaving. She has been in a weird mood, and just seems sad. We found out from a friend of ours at school, whose señora is friends with Gracia was saying really great things about Britton and I, and that normally every semester there is always something negative she has to say about her students, but this year she hasn’t. That surprised me a ton. Haha I would have thought otherwise, but hey, I guess some people show their love in weird ways. Anyways, I was glad to hear that. Also, Gracia gave us gifts today. We both got a little snowman decoration for Christmas, and a scarf. Gracia makes everything you could think of… aprons, baby clothes, shawls, etc. Anyways, since we got here, all Gracia ever did was just make thing after thing after thing. She would always pack them up and give them as gifts. They were beautiful. She just got finished making the cutest baby clothes for her cousin who is having a baby. They were adorable. Anyways, so Gracia made a shawl/scarf for each of us. I am just so excited to come home, and for it to be Christmas. However, I am not excited for the freezing temperatures that I will return to… I think it’s cold here… and it’s only in the 50’s… I can only imagine what it will be like at home. Anyways, I am so excited to see everyone, and can’t believe that this semester is just about over. I am so glad I came, but I couldn’t be happier to be done with it now. Academically it was the hardest semester I have ever had, and I am so glad I don’t have to continue with it. However, I am so glad that I was able to come here, and travel as much as I did. Anyways, thank you to everyone who has been reading these. I hope I have made them somewhat interesting for you guys. I love you all! I’m almost HOME!!!

Yeah, Ash!!! You are almost home; I can't believe it either. I have thoroughly enjoyed reading your blogs and seeing your pictures.
I am glad that Gracia had good things to say about you and Britton- I am sure she will miss you both. Perhaps you are right, she maybe just had a different way of expressing things compared to what you are used to. I am very grateful to her for providing a safe, CLEAN, and good place for you to live these last almost four months.
Get ready for me to kiss your face off when I see you!!
LUL-
Mamrs :-)
Oh Ash I can hardly wait to see you! Yes it seems like forever but also like just yesterday. I'm so happy that you're coming home I was crying as I read your last blog (big surprise the crying part:)!)
Your blogs have been such a highlight in my days. They've been so interesting, funny, sweet adn most of pure YOU! Always made it feel like you were not so far away. Thankful to Gracia for taking care of you, of course she had wonderful things to say about you and Britton ... YOU ARE!
Want to give you a big hug & kiss and we are sooooo looking forward to going to the Village with all of you on the 22nd.
Love you much ... Mrs. Greco
