Summer camp!

Today is Rachel's first day of summer camp. She woke me up this morning with a big hug, smelling of sunscreen and wriggling with excitement -- this camp that Drew signed her up for consists of field trips the whole week -- to the National Zoo, Clemyjontri Park (which Tia Daniella and Jojo remember all too well:)) and Great Falls Park -- all places she loves.

Drew found out on the news last night that the National Zoo, where Rachel is heading today after a morning of activities and snacks, has three baby elephants that will be on display today. Rachel told me this as she went downstairs.

"I'm jealous!" I said. "I want to see the baby elephants! How about you go to work and I go see the elephants?"

"Mom," Rachel said dismissively. "You've already HAD your childhood."
