This last weekend I visited Bauru one last time.  The construction on the Dirts house is coming along quickly and all the kids are doing well.

I thought I would give a short update on where everything stands and I’ll try to follow up with a more thoughtful post later.

The house should be finished with a few weeks.  The community center concept continues moving forward and has gained great support from the locals.  We are continuing to look for an appropriate building to purchase–I have my fingers crossed that we will have put in an offer on one house before I go to the U.S.

It feels so strange to think about coming home.  Yesterday was bittersweet; this upcoming week will be the same…it is almost over…
