First Scout Camp

Today Tyler left for Scout Camp. I admit, I cried. Not in front of anyone of course.  He was sweet and told me he’d be ok. I know he will be, he’s got a GREAT scoutmaster. They aren’t too far away really and I’ve thought more than once about just driving down there to check up on him. I just wish I could text him or email him and see how he’s doing every night. I begged him to take pictures but he’s not like Lauren. I’ll be lucky if he takes even one. It’s going to be a LOONNNGGGG week.

Oh what a grown up kid he is! I think you're very brave and that you're being very strong. I know that he'll be fine, but I can so relate to wanting to drive over to check on him, it can be a very strong pull! Let me know if you cave;)

I know how you feel! I was so excited for Douglas when he went on his first campout only he was the one 'homesick' but he survived! It didn't seem to bother David to leave. They seem too little to be going! Just little men inside those boy bodies waiting to bust out! :o) Dpon't forget to take a picture of him at the end when he comes home! He will be 'broke in' and need a bath along with a 'fragrant' back pack of dirty clothes and sleeping bag! :o)!

Man, he's all grown up. He really is such a sweet boy! Congrats Michelle for holding it together in front of him. I don't think I would have been able to do it.
