Willow has finally started to settle into camp. Yesterday, their field trip was to Canobie Lake Park…and the Adventure!Willow I know and love came out. She explained all the rides she went on, how she went in a helicopter ride, went on one of the water roller coasters and got totally drenched. She was beaming and excited, she was so blissfully, utterly a child. I wish I had been able to see her doing this (but isn’t that the bummer part of being a parent, you often don’t get to see how your children shine with other people/groups). Next week is her last week of camp—they are going to the Museum of Science for their last field trip…sort of a precursor to school, I suppose.
Michael has LOVED video game creation camp. He has been working on his own game, which is his homage to Universal Monsters—he has a Frankenstein’s monster, Dracula, wolves, etc. From what I have seen, very clever traps too. He has mentioned more than once that he definitely wants to come back to this camp next year (we only did this one for a week to try it out). To see him happy and smiling this summer has been such a wonderful thing.
