Happy Camper

Dear Sawyer,

Two years ago, you were supposed to start summer camp for the first time. Then Covid hit and you couldn't go to camp (or anywhere else) for awhile. Thankfully, you were finally able to enjoy this age-old childhood experience this year and had your first day of summer camp today! I had signed you up for camp all the way back in March and when I told you, you were so excited that you asked a million questions: What time will the camp bus come pick you up? What will they serve for lunch on the first day? How many kids will be in your group? What kind of ice cream do they offer? I had to tell you to stop asking questions because I had no idea since camp was still four MONTHS away!

And now camp has finally started! You woke up super early today at a little past 6am and were dressed, fed, brushed and sunblocked by 7:30am--a whole 50 minutes before your bus was scheduled to arrive! Starting at 7:40am, you kept looking out the front window and asking me if the bus was here yet! When it did arrive, you weren't nervous at all and just walked right onto it. And when you came home this afternoon and I asked you how camp had been, you replied, "It was a glorious day." Glorious! I am so happy you had such a good start to camp!

Love,

Mom
