After more than ten and a half years of serving Gateway Covenant Church, Pastor Randall, Lauralea and Micah are off to Alberta. Although the big formal farewell event was held last Sunday, we had a last chance to say goodbye this morning.
I’m terrible at saying goodbye, as I am at anything that might involve showing emotion. Curse this Norwegian reserve.
I wish I could be as expressive as Marc, Sharon, or Linea.
Despite the lack of bear hugs, I will miss them.
I’m more expressive (emotional) after the fact than I am in the moment. I’m not that different.
I don’t know, Phil. I’m Norwegian and English, neither of which are known for their emotions. Of course, I’m a woman… (enough said)
:)
Some things simply take practice. My kids have given me plenty of opportunities to give and take hugs – must be their French genes.
Are the Dutch emotional? I don’t know.
The English part of me wants to sit and have tea….but the Irish part of me always wins!
