I never got around to creating a camp schedule for the kids. This should come as no surprise to people who have a stronger grasp of reality than I do. I tried, but I eventually realized that my enthusiasm for the job was not equal to the task of overcoming the obstacles, not the least of which was my full-time job. So I had to let that dream go. But I never gave up the dream of spending more time with my kids, and over the course of the summer, we have had a lot of walking time together, watched a lot of movies, and we’ve even done the occasional craft (tonight we made houses out of craft sticks). It’s not summer camp, or even close, but it’s still good.

It takes a great deal of bravery to stand up to our enemies, but just as much to stand up to our friends.
