So Little Time

So life has been busy.  Camp has completely and totally worn me out.  I figured out maybe my body just cuts out after 8 weeks.  I'm not sure, but I have been praying for energy and strength for the rest of the weeks.  Luckily week 9 was rough, but God definitely provided me with the energy I needed.  I feel as if so much has happend since I last blogged, which is definitely the truth.  That clearly means that this post is going to be extremely long, so prepare yourself.  During week 8 things got a little crazy.  My kids were being worse than normal, and I assume it's because we are getting towards the end of the summer, but whatever it is, it is making my job much harder.  I seriously have the best Co-Counselor ever, and I could not imagine somebody better than Bri.  I would not be making it without her I feel.  Either way, Thursday threw me for a loop with some surprises, but with God everything worked out exactly the way it should.  Friday of week 8 was a glorious, wonderful day.  Why you may ask?  Well only the coolest person from Montgomery came to visit, BETHANY!  I have missed her so much, and after Thursday I needed her so much that weekend.  God planned her visit perfectly, and having her here for an entire weekend was exactly beyond what I needed.  She got to meet all of my wonderful children, and everybody thought we were sisters.  I cannot tell you how many times somebody asked us if we were sisters.  It was insane!  WE DON'T LOOK ALIKE.  Anyways, we did win the spirit stick for week 8 which means we have won it more than anybody else, and more than anybody else will.  Go Team Blue!  Friday night we went to Camellia Grill and to go see Cars 2.  It was wonderful!  I love Disney so much!  Saturday we went down to the quarter of course, but it rained on us! Stupid!  We had a great time though, and that night we watched The OC!  Sunday we went to church, then Superior Grill, then we went and saw Winnie the Pooh that night, and that was wonderful as well!  Monday she came to camp with me, and yet again we got asked a million times if we were sisters.  We still weren't related.  That night we went and ate the best seafood!  Deanie's.  OMG AMAZING.  We took many pictures.  Tuesday morning she left before camp though, and then the rest of the week went by super slow.  I was super tired, but it's okay.  It's over now, and I can sleep for a super long time tomorrow.   Today was Joel's last day, and he leaves Monday.  My MissionLab were bad this week, but that's okay because apparently Ali accepted Christ!  That's the first salvation of the summer in my group!  MissionLab is finished after this week so next week is our last week, and we will have zero MissionLab.  Next week is going to fly by, and that does not excite me at all!  It is going to be so sad, and I'm going to cry probably more than I ever have in my entire life.  Becca got MLJ to make a video of some of the kids being interviewed about camp to show at parent night, and my wonderful Seth LaFrance said I was his favorite counselor because I make him laugh.  I wanted to cry just knowing he said that!  Honestly, I am ready to be home and see all of my family, but I am NOT ready to be done with camp and most likely never see these kids again.  I am not going to be able to handle it very well.  Please start praying now...
