Dear Leah,
I wish I'd had time to write a hard copy of a letter to you before I left, but things just got really crazy at the end and the next best thing I can do is write one to you via email or Facebook. I'm sitting on the plane right now to Toronto and it doesn't even feel like I've left. At the most it feels like I'm just going on a long trip and will be heading back to NL in a month or so. I imagine it'll sink in more in a week when I move into my new place and my parents and Tobi leave.
I'm so glad God put you in my life. I know we didn't get a lot of time to hang out and get to know one another, but I thank him for the time we did get. It was such a blessing and I hope we can continue to stay in touch. I know I've been saying it to everyone, but is really mean it when I say call me if you're ever in Toronto or out west. I can definitely hook you up with places to stay if you're ever in Alberta or even Saskatchewan. Probably BC too.
I can't get over the fact I've been in NL three years and finished my degree and am moving on. It's nuts how fast time goes by. I hope our study goes well in the fall and we're able to get the google hangouts or skype to work, I really enjoyed captivating and think it's beneficial for us ladies to get to know one another a bit better. I just listened to a sermon on the plane by Francis Chan and it was really powerful. Got me pumped about our life after this one and how much more amazing and painless it's going to be. I can't wait to spend eternity with The Lord, as well as so many of those I met in NL. It's really going to be a blast.
It's funny that I started this off with saying it doesn't feel real, but now that I've written a letter I feel a piece of me being left behind. I imagine each letter I write will become harder and harder the more I realize the awesome people I call brothers and sisters are in a place far away now.
Good luck with your future and may God guide you in everything.
Love,
Yvette
