Today, Track 1 came to the Y in all it's glory. It was so good to see some of the kids I hadn't seen since the spring. The hugs and excitement were going around. The usual culprits were up to their old ways and it was amazing to see how far our first graders have come from where they were this time last year!
However, in addition to the usual goodness that comes from a day of camp, there are always moments in each day that just make me laugh out loud, and those I must share.
Scenario 1:
I walk into the Calton room to see my good pal M sitting in a corner. His counselor quickly leads me to the office to share this little story. While having the kids divide up into a nut and no nut table at lunch and saying "If you have nuts sit at this table and if you don't sit at this table" my dear friend pipes up saying "What about these nuts?" as we points to himself in the crotch. What do you say to that? It's hilarious.
Scenario 2:
In the middle of lunch assembly, a time for the kids to sing some songs and learn about Jesus, I hear this little voice across the room saying "I'm stuck, I'm stuck." When I look over, I see my new friend A has somehow managed to get himself stuck inside his t-shirt. He just couldn't quite figure out how to put all the right parts in the right holes. Later that day, when asked what school he went to, A replied, "Kindergarten."
