• finding camp kids tomorrow

  Headed to find my girls tomorrow.  It will be a early leave.  We have to be out of here by 6:30 in order to get to camp by 11.  And even at that its going to be close, but Rob doesn't get home from work until then.

  Kids did very well at home this week.  I was extremely nervous as to how Samuel would handle the responsibility of being the oldest.  But he did very very well.  So well I told him so, and he just beamed.

  Oh he wasn't a saint...but as close to sainthood as Samuel gets.

  Yesterday he had a major boo-boo too.  Jamari's pony decided to dump Samuel into a very tall bush of Himalayan blackberrys.  He has some impresive battle scars, and I pulled over 30 stickers out of his arm/neck/shoulder/ears. 

  There's probably still some in there, but I got out what I could see.  HE earned much sympathy from all of us as a result.

  I'm still torn about baton.  I will make the decision after talking to the girls when they come home. Prayers are appreciated.  Its so hard to decide how to do this.

  Do I persue it because my children are truely good, and make the sacrifices needed to get them what they need, or do I direct them to other areas that are less expensive, and closer to home, etc.
