oh there is drama everywhere....

last night our program directors from Vicda came to our house to meet with me and julia and kelsey about our placement at el shaddai.  long story short Steven and Beatris the owners were not happy with the way my roommates were doing things at el shaddai.  my roommates were told they didnt spend enough time there and when they did go that they didnt stay long enough.  i guess i was doing just fine...but i was also spending at least 4 hours at the pre school and then 2 at el shaddai. so i was fine but steven and beatris didnt want to work things out and asked for us to be gone by friday....which in turns means i have to go as well.  at first i was devastated and very sad well i wont lie i still am but one thing i have learned here very quickly is there is nothing to be done sometimes and you just have to go with the flow.  so we are being picked up tomorrow ( was supposed to be friday but one of my roommates had it out with the owner today so now we are leaving tomorrow) and being dropped off at a new placement called happy life.  Its close to nairobi which is a positive thing i think.  i only have two weeks left which seems crazy but it also makes it hard to really connect with the kids. but i am sure i will manage and ball my eyes out there like i have done here at el shaddai.  i have come to terms with it and beginning to except things....just makes it hard. John and gladys our directors here were very sorry they have to take us away and i was very angry with them at first but its not their fault.  and its very unfortunate that things couldnt have been worked out.  maybe its for the best.  thats waht i am telling myself anyways. 

elizabeth is doing well.  she is my little angel.  she has been talking to me non stop and today she even danced and sang for me. of course i cant understand a word she is saying but i am going to miss her like crazy.  she is the one kid i am going to miss the most.  she has come so far and i am afraid me leaving might put her back in a funk.  lets hjope not!  She is constantly holding my hand and making me carry her around and if i try to walk away she runs after me screaming my name....LOLA......haha. 

I will write again once i have been to my placement in nairobi and let you all know how it is.  Things happen for a reason right!
