Emily is home from Camp

Emily spent last week at Burnt Cabin Camp. She had a wonderful time. David and I had a hard time with the quiet.

Each year each camper is given a nick name, last year she was Teddy Bear because she gave everyone hugs. This year she was dubbed "zip it". Apparently because anytime Mr. Darrell started talking about her nick name she made the hand motion for zip it. Needless to say we weren't proud. But oh well, it's camp. But then they passed out the certificates for attending which plainly revealed what her cabin counselor named her.........

Emily Combs, Where's my Stuff.

Seems she was forever looking for her stuff. Some was found right where she put it, some was found where she forgot she put it and some wasn't found at all. A hard lesson for an almost 10 year old.

But she could have easily been named, how do I turn on the shower, how do I fix my bed, how do I whatever. Thankfully her cabin counselor is a good friend of mine & mother of 4 and was very helpful and came back and told me I do too much for her.

The You tube at the right is a music video and Emily is in the top one.
