Younger son went to camp today. I forgot to pack his flashlight, no biggie. They use a buddy system when walking to the bathroom cabin anyway. But then I noticed he never put his sneakers on before we left. He only had sandals, which are not allowed. The counselor said they might be okay, maybe, since they weren’t open-toed and had a strap around the back, but he would have to wear socks with them. As I would not doom my son to walking around wearing sandals with black socks (he only wears black socks), older son and I ran to the big W to buy a pair of sneakers. We also picked up a flashlight. Older son, knowing I was in an emotional mood (leaving my baby at camp!), cunningly asked for a Skylander and is buying it upgrades even as I type.
I love this camp. It’s awesome. The boys love this camp-even more awesome. And in ten days they will go there together for a week. A whole week. 🙂
But I will miss them. And I thank God daily that I only have to miss them for a short while.
Hugs to the ones who know I’m sending them hugs today. Your strength has been, is still, and will always be an inspiration.
