I am so touched at this gift! Not only is it sweet and thoughtful, but it's also beautiful - something I would pick out myself. I've really been touched by everyone's sweet expressions of appreciation to me, telling me how much I've meant to them in my time here. It's nice to know you can affect someone's life for the better in the short time you have with them. I pray I can touch people the same way in Moldova!

An Amazing Gift
I just had to post on here about the wonderful gift I received today! Today was the last day that both of my bosses and me would all be in the office together. So they took me out to lunch at Pei Wei (yum!), and they gave me this precious gift. They said it was from them, and also the choir at the church where I work took up a collection to buy me a gift to show their appreciation for all I've done for them in the past 2 years. As if that wasn't already super sweet, the gift they got me is gorgeous! It's a beautiful gold and silver cross necklace made by the renowned jeweler James Avery.

I know you will. It's amazing how quickly relationships can form when you open yourself up to others and show that you care about them.
Wow, you must be a much better worker than me. I'm pretty sure when I left all I got was a "don't let the door hit you on the way out." Just kidding...how am i supposed to live without you?
That is a beautiful gift. You've been so blessed to work with folks who appreciate you so much.
I can't wait to see you soon!
It looks even better in person!! Congrats!
so it dawned on me that I don't have an email address for you anymore. You won't get rid of me that easily! hope the driving went well.
