He's Baaaaack!

What a fast week! It seems like just yesterday we took Z to camp and now he is home. Oh, it did my heart good to see the little guy today. He was so stinkin' sweet when he saw us...wouldn't let us go!

This week has been a little boy's dream come true. When I saw this picture, I knew he was in heaven!



You can tell how much his counselors love and adore the kiddos. These were his two favorite ones, Scott and Evan. The words they said about him today were precious.

The best part about the week was the letter we received from him. It read,

"Thank you for sending me to camp. It is grate.
Sed me nex yer. And the nex yer. And the nex yer."

Well done, Z. You did it! You came out of your comfort zone, embraced new challenges and made new friends. You even let a CUBS fan (gasp!) take you under his wing! WE ARE SO PROUD OF YOU!!

I had to stop by...saw your comment at Alana's about Le Madelaine's. So good! I have never tried that particular soup, but I am in love with their French Onion soup. Mmmm. During my poor college student days, we would go there, buy a cup of coffee, and then proceed to feast on the free bread that they offer. Good times.

What a cute blog you have... I'm glad your little guy is back. You survived! And you're an awesome mommy for letting him go. :)

Yea Z! Now if he can share his new love of camp with his buddy JP.

Although next year with 2 screaming babies, JP may be begging me to send him for a month!

Such an accomplishment (for mommy and Z). Glad to see he's back, safe and sound, and that he had so much fun! I have such great memories of camp when I was a kid!
