Back to camp

Josh finished his first week at YMCA day camp on Friday, and Molly and I attended the family picnic on Friday. "Cole Slaw," the camp director, told me she couldn't believe how much Josh had changed since last year. I couldn't believe that Josh actually stood up in front of the group on cue and told every one about the necklace he had been awarded for doing well in sports. He seems to particularly like archery, and he keeps asking me if we can shoot things in our backyard with arrows.

Later that day, we encountered a rare moment when a long period of quiet actually was good. We found the kids reading and sharing books on the couch. Too bad this doesn't happen more often.
