Drew is preparing himself to get up and online at 6:30 a.m. to register Rachel for the zillions of summer camps we need to register her for this summer. So far she has expressed interest in classic outdoor camps; art camps; a pony camp; and an engineering camp. Drew has created a spreadsheet of possibilities for when registration opens tomorrow. "I have a vision of parents all over Arlington doing the same thing we're doing, girding themselves for WAR."
He's right about that one. Let's hope Rachel gets into everything she wants and that we don't have to take non-existent vacation or comp time to stay with her for weeks on end.
One camp she will definitely be going to: Girl Scout sleep-away camp, specially for Daisy Scouts! It's a three-day, two-night camp in Leesburg, Va. When we presented her with that option, she immediately said, "I'm GOING! I've GOT this!!" She insists she is totally ready to be separated from us for half a week. I am totally not sure that I am ready, but I guess this is a small step in the long journey of letting her go for good. Sniff.
