As I am wide awake and can't muster to fall asleep, thoughts are pooling in about what it will be like one week from today, living in a new home; a new country...
I feel as though I am on the brink of one of the biggest occasions in my whole life and everything inside me is racing around like the Daytona 500 (First and last Nascar analogy I will ever make so I hope you enjoyed it ;-) )

Tonight I had the awesome opportunity to talk with my host mother, Gloria (but I will call her Mami), on the phone and it pretty much made my heart soar connecting with her. The first thing she said after stating who I was, was, "Ah, una de mis hijas!" (One of my daughters!) In response to asking her if she wanted anything special from the States, she said "Un novio" (A boyfriend). To this I replied, "Sorry, we are fresh out of those currently.." (just kidding). After a little while of giggly Spanish and feeling like my cheeks were going to explode from smiling Mami wished me safe travels and said, "Kisses, kisses, kisses, kisses!" I am in love already and can't wait to meet the whole family.
