let's make this last forever

I don’t want camp to end this week!!! I don’t want Krazy Legs and Cadi to leave! They are small enough to just stay for the rest of this summer. This week has just been awesome. I love having the camps so small because you get to know all the kids by name!

Yesterday Cadi went camping! They cooked outside (which I ran up to enjoy!) while Rainbow was having a barbecue, so only Camp Krazy Legs was in the dining hall. Then I ran down for the CeeTLes (we still rock by the way) to give CKL their private concert. Those kids are so awesome. A lot of them are in wheelchairs this week, but they still dance plenty!! After dinner I had dimensions with Cadi at ceramics where we got to glaze all the stuff they made Monday. It's fun just talking with the campers! After that I went to CKL pool party! some of the kids asked me to and it just looked like so much fun! plus i never get to the pool. They are such an excited and happy group. One of the girls in that camp that I have gotten the closest to said "It's you!" when she saw me, then whispered, "your drumming is way better than J's" or whoever the drummer in the band was. Kinda made my day. After that I ran back up to camping with a bunch of other CTL staff to have s'mores and sing around the campfire with Cadi! our evenings are pretty full this week!

today i had a movement and dance session with becky for CKL!! it was awesome. her project for her internship had to deal with wheelchair yoga, so we did that, and then i got to do some movement and teach dances that i modified for wheelchairs! woo!

at meals i sit with my Cadi cabin and yesterday (and today) i told them that they should come to my improv session. a bunch did! and when i got there they said "i told you i would come". once again... awesome session. i love improv because it allows the campers to be silly and have fun in a different way than usual.

one of the Cadi girls was supposed to practice with the CeeTLes so she could play guitar with us, but she got sick right before rest hour. :( 2 Krazy Legs campers will be joining us tonight, though! also with the band.... we have been doing lots of switching instruments this week! taking turns on drums, guitar, singing, etc. it's so fun to change it up! AND i got to sing a song with Joanna! (that never happens because she usually plays keyboard and i am on drums) but the keyboard is broken this week.

tonight is the dance for CKL or as melissa made the sign, it's the sigma beta (their fraternity) and the kappa lambda (for the girls!) prom!! it's also Rainbow's carnival, and the talent show for Cadi. another busy night!!

i have had some rainbow camper sessions (really i have had one boys' cabin 3 times), but other than that i have been busy doing stuff with my cabin!

i am loving camp. i never wanna leave. ever. and i don't want the campers to leave either!
