Camp Week 7

This past week we had 3 different partner organizations come to camp. One was for young adults with spina bifida, one was for girls who have been sexually abused and or exploited, and one was for young children with cancer.

I had a blast the entire week. I was assigned to a cabin of 5 year old boys! They were absolutely precious. There was a child in my cabin that was going through chemo at camp. He had the sweetest blue eyes.  He was definitely on the spectrum for autism though.

I had such an awesome experience the whole entire week. To see the spina bifida kids drive the pontoon boat, and have that amount of power was indescribable. To see them swim, and be normal kids for once, was just amazing.

Last week, like all weeks, reminded me how incredibly blessed I am. I am having the most amazing summer and I can't imagine it ever ending. I'm sad that we're over half way done with camp. I wish it was week 1 still.

I am lacking behind on posting every day as the weeks go on. I have been growing more and more tired, yet more and more involved with my campers. I simply have not been able to make the time to blog lately.

I spent the weekend in Spartanburg with John. It was amazing to get to see him after so long. I had a blast with him all day Saturday. He got me a gorgeous opal necklace and koala bears. His parents got me ugg boots and a scarf. He took me out to such a nice dinner Saturday night.

It was an amazing week, and weekend. I'm having a blast this week as well, and can't wait to blog about it later!
