My Family

If there was ever a time that I was looking forward to it was this. My family coming to Costa Rica to visit me. Sunday the 28Th was a day that could not come fast enough. That day I was just floating, like a kid at Christmas. I could not hold back some of the tears that came as I greeted my dad and grandparents as they came out of the airport. We went and picked up the car, which was very small but we made it work. They got to meet my host family and Dylinn and I had the opportunity to show them some of the areas that we work with. My grandparents got a time share in San Isidro. It was a beautiful area, unfortunately there was not much to do but there was a lot of talking and catching up to do. So we sat and talked a lot while watching traffic. It was very good for me. We did go horseback riding into the mountains to see a beautiful waterfall. We came back to the base early to do some sight seeing and meeting some more of my friends. We went on a tour of Cafe Brit with some of my friends. It was very informative and fun. We may not have done much but it was exactly what I needed. The week did fly by like anything that you always look forward to. Again while seeing them off at the airport i could not hold back the tears.
I got thinking of what was telling me during the week is how He just wants to sit and watch traffic and talk to you. Also on the trail back to the waterfall, just how many times does He have some of the most beautiful things hidden.
