fist kaleo post

it's the end of week one. and what all have i done this week, you ask? well, i would love to tell you.

i have cut a LOT of fruit. yep. that's what i've done. in the produce department at Publix. but, let me ALSO tell you that i have already gotten hours of quality time with three women, Sonja, Anna, and Terri. these women are hysterical. what else is there to do all day but goof off and laugh at each other? although the early mornings aren't getting easier and my feet aren't getting any more used to nine hours of standing, i am so thrilled to have this job for the next eight weeks. it's a BLAST.

i have spent a LOT of quality time with the girls i'm living with. why? because all eight of us have the same love language: quality time. we constantly find ourselves all around the kitchen table or sitting together on the back porch. these girls are already such a blessing.

i have gotten a social overload. and i LOVE it. i love being around people. i love getting to share the experiences of Kaleo with everyone here. i know that most of us will go back to campus in the fall with an incredible vision and bond, and i'm excited because that's something i've never really had before.

finally, i've caught the TINIEST glimpse of what is to come. there is nothing i want more out of this summer than to constantly long for the Lord's comfort and presence. i know he is going to walk with me through the entirety of these nine weeks. i know he is going to reveal to me the things i am asking him to. i know it's going to be perfect. yes, at this point i am the slightest bit overwhelmed because i know there is so much that could happen this summer. the anticipation of it all it insane.

i still am nervous, but in a more excited way than i was before. i don't know how else to put it.

i'm off to work tomorrow. again. it's memorial day. aka the 2nd biggest day of the summer. bring on the parfaits and the fruit salads.
