Alexa is at camp
Alexa went to a summer camp that they do here for kids who just finished 5th grade. The camp is called Shadow Mountain. Whitney and Landon both went and they loved it. I took Alexa over to meet the bus Monday morning and she was nervous--she had been the night before also. When we got there, several girls were paired with their friends (this is all of Springville area). Alexa just stood by me in line waiting to turn her medical form in. I tried to get her to go load her stuff or find a friend, but she wouldn't. I looked over and she was crying. I just tried to tell her that it would be fun and she would have a great time, but she wasn't convinced. We turned in her form and loaded her stuff and about that time, she saw her friends. She gave me a quick side hug and left to be with them. They stood in line for the bus and I stood by her friends mom's and talked until we watched them pull away. I forgot to bring my camera, so I didn't get any pictures. She will be back Wednesday afternoon--hopefully she has a good time.

That breaks my heart. I bet she was relieved when she saw her friends. It is so hard to teach your kids to be independent but I think it is one of the most invaluable things to have.
