Saying Goodbyes are never fun. I have always had a hard time with it. I remember when my parents would leave on a trip when I was a little kid and I would hate saying goodbye... even if it was only for a week. So this goodbye was not a fun one, but at the same time she was so excited to go that it made it easier.
Lauren left the first week of September for Ecuador. She is volunteering with the group OSSO. She is working in an orphanage down there. She is so brave because she went down there all by herself. She met the girls that she was going with at the airport and then they all flew down together. She said that she loved the girls from the very beginning. She instantly connected with them and can't wait to spend the next 4 months with them. I am so happy for her!
We went to dinner at Cafe Sabor and then said our goodbyes after we ate.
Lauren is doing great in Ecuador. She loves the girls she lives with and she loves the children in the orphanage so much. They are all so lucky to have her down there. I just love her so much and I am so dang proud of her!
