GIRL'S CAMP -- MY BABY IS GROWING UP :(







Madison turned 12 a week before girl's camp, and she was so excited that she was able to go this year. My baby is growing up and it makes me so sad. I recently got released from YW, so I was a little sad that I did not get to go with her for her first time. She came home yesterday!! Of course she had a GREAT time. She learned so much and actually was talking spiritually. I am hoping the things she learned and felt will stay with her for a long time. My camp years were some great memories for me. We had it rougher then these girls though. I only had cabins one year of my 4 and had to rough it out in fields with no shower all the others. Madi had cabins and people cook for her (she said food choices were not great, but still enjoyed every minute). Our ward has 50 girls, so it makes for an eventful 5 days with all those different personalities. I actually think they all got along great and made some great friendships. Madi starts Junior High next year and has not gone to school with any of the girls from our ward, so it was nice for her to establish some friends before school starts. Thanks to all the leaders that put in so much of their time to make camp a great experience for all!!!
