friday!

hi there! well, another week of artcamp has come and gone.a few challenges this week! i think it was the mix of kiddies. we did do a lot of art and they played hard! i haven't worked on my book at all.i guess it will have to wait till september.my creativity is next to zero after the wee ones go home.both em and i are just pooped!!! it's been an incredibily busy summer and guess what? i've actually made some money...weird...this year with my new attitude the camp has been a great joy.i have kids who really want to work.soooo refreshing! i also have those who just want to have fun.one day last week, i was feeling like i should be pushing them to do more than play.i looked at all 13 of them laughing and screaming in the pool.i yelled,"thanx for coming to my ARTCAMP! they all stopped in mid play for just a second...then they yelled back at me"your'e WELCOME" i realized at that point that they were really having fun and isn't that the point? i pride myself on my structure but it's moments like this that i have to take a step back and look at the bigger picture! i gotta say too...my daughter is amazing! she is such a good camp partner.we've worked together for so long that she now anticipates what i'm wanting next.i love that girl sooooo much and i know just how lucky i am! thanx dolly!
