The L word.

If I haven't mentioned before, part of the Rotary Youth Exchange is that each student has at least two host families. I have three. Currently, I am staying with my second family. They are incredibly kind and adore me. I love staying with them and I go to bed smiling almost every night.
This week, my host mother and host grandmother are in Bangkok visiting family and the hospital. I was orginally going to go with them but plans changed. I spent the weekend inKhon kaen for a friend's birthday and then I came right back to Nakhon Phanom.
I'm staying with my host dad and brother and with any other family, it would be a little uncomfortable. It isn't with them. We laugh so much.
Last night, we were in the car and my host father asked me if I really had to change host families. I said I wasn't sure and would need to talk to Rotary. The rest of the night, he and my host brother continued to talk about me staying with them until I left for the U.S.
If I hadn't already met my third host family, I'm sure I would have said yes. I met my third hsot family a few months ago and they are all so excited to host me. I'll have two younger sisters and a little brother. My third host mother is knitting me a sweater and every time I see her, she insists on sending me home with food, bags and bags of food.
I told my host second host father that I would switch to my thrid host family in april, but if I didn't like it, I would move back in with them. I never thought I'd have my host family get so attached to me. I wanted them to, but I never thought it possible. My host parents say they love me. It's weird to think that someday I'll have to leave them and I don't know if I'll ever see them again.
