Mariela, Don’t worry home will be there when you get back. Places don’t change too much, your friends won’t grow or change any more that you do (kids do that), and you will have a lot of special memories to keep forever. I am always amazed that home doesn’t change more when I am gone for a long time. So, go forth and explore, the home front will stay steady for you while you are gone.

Kate
