Last Day ~ Water Day :)

Sadly ~ today was Sam’s last day of Camp.

Everyday she got more & more excited

about going.

Today ~ she was about to burst with excitement

By Wednesday – while I was signing her in,

 she started R-U-N-N-I-N-G

to her classroom.

Today is “Water Day”.

Here ~ Sam is showing Miss Kate

her bathing suit.

After dropping off Sam @ Camp,

Allen, Analeah & I went for a hike @

Stone Mountain.

Look at the very 1st. thing we saw

And ~ I’m happy to report…

they’ve finally finished rebuilding the

bridge @ the Dam road.

It was VERY HOTTT !!

Allen is trying to catch the breeze.

This is the little school news letter

that was in Sam’s backpack.

Do you recognize that cute little post-girl

in the bottom left-hand corner?

This is the backside of the newsletter.

This was such a wonderful experience

for our sweet Sam.

I’m very thankful for the program

&

Sandra allowing us the opportunity

to keep Sam so she could attend

Camp ~ 3rd. Day

I’m pleased to report

today is Sam’s 3rd. day @ camp

and she continues to love it!!

Today,

They must have been the

Community Helpers

When we arrived to pick her up,

the children were posing for a

class picture as

Community Helpers.

Camper Sam

Continuing with my

Month-Long-Birthday-Celebration

Sam has come for a week long visit.

During this week, she’ll go to camp.

(The director of Sam’s camp @ Corpus Christi is Beedee Soskin)

But 1st, Papa & Honey have to insure

that Sam will sleep well Sunday night.

Soooo…

We took Sam to the park.

It worked…she is a pooped little girl

Monday was her 1st. time in a classroom setting.

The week-long camp theme will be

Community Helpers 

~Meet all sorts of community helpers ~

Sam is ready to G-O ~ go

Thankfully ~ they put her in the 2 1/2 year program.

(When I went to check out the camp

…Sam was going into the 2 year old class.)

Sam ~ playing with her new friend Jadda

At the end of the day,

her teacher (Miss Maleta) told me

…I didn’t realize she wasn’t potty trained.

She said…oh well, Sam it’s potty time.

And, she went…every hour

Miss Maleta also said

…she doesn’t talk much;

but, she has real good

listening ears.

And, she ate well…the eating part was s-h-o-c-k-i-n-g !!!

Sam had a real good day.

The Community Helper that came today was

a dog…a therapy dog.

This lesson must have hit home for Sam.

At home with Analeah

Sam kept saying…Sweet Analeah,

mouth, teeth…sweet Analeah,

I love you Analeah

Sam was very eager to go back Tuesday

Tuesday morning ~

Little Girl Blue literally skipped to her

2nd. day of Camp

Today, their community helper was to be

a soldier.

Sam spotted her Honey pretty quickly today

when I picked her up

Here ~ Sam is telling Miss Maleta bye.

I’ll see you tomorrow…su-r-r-e (sure)

BTW ~ Today, Sam took a nap.

and, making up her bed after her nap
