This past Thursday night till this morning I was blessed to complete my 4th year chaperoning the 4&5th grade camp for our church! This is always a great time to back away from the stress life is giving me and just have some fun and memories with these kids. Its always special as I look back and am able to watch these students grow up in the church and see the wonderful things that they do for Christ! This year our numbers were a little down but that did not stop us from making memories. I had 8 girls and we successfully scared some of the boys the last night(morning @1 am) and to experience the time to be a mommy with having one of my girls getting sick so stayed up late and i think i got about 1.5 hours of sleep! So this afternoon I'm dragging a little bit! But I am so thankful for the opportunity to be able to serve and work with the other chaperones! Great people, great food always and certain ones continue to carry out as traditions (taco eating contests and recently biscuits and chocolate gravy!) the kids always make this time a blast and i love it because its a change to give back to the church like it has given me so many things!
"Just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many." Matthew 20:28
