not one of the difficult kids

Yup. That is what Dandy's day camp counselor told us at the end of the week. That our son, the one that is usually the Difficult One in other contexts, did not make the naughty list at day camp. We are so pleased. I can't possibly share with you how many hours of coaching and parenting and intervening and fretting this accomplishment cost us, nor how pleased we are to -- at least not on this occassion -- to not be the 'in-trouble' family. Yeah Dandy!

In other camp news, he got to go knee-boarding and inner-tubing and roll in the dirt and sing and romp and came home filthy and exhausted. It was a great week.

As a Mom who was once told, "when I saw x's name on the list my heart sank but x was fine!" I thoroughly understand and celebrate with you!

Well done, D! Ice cream does sound warranted.

That is a lovely feeling. We are often on the naughty list thanks to my oldest boy. *sigh*
