Last Day of Camp 2010

Today was the last day of camp- cant believe it! Clara and Emma colored thank you cards for their counselors this morning. They joyfully jumped out of the car and had a great morning at camp. When Mommy picked them up, they gave our their thank you cards and said goodbye. It was very sweet. And, their friends didn't understand why they were saying goodbye, until they were told that Clara and Emma are going on vacation next week.

Here is a note from the camp
"The Choo Choo Trains had a busy sixth week of camp. We bagan the week by welcoming Eitan back and celebrating Clara and Emma's third birthdays. We enjoyed our animal themed week. When The Nature of Things visited, Nicholas was excited to learn about Raisinette the chinchilla. She was so soft! Marcia the Musical Moose came to camp and Phil hummed along as she sang. We can't believe that our camp season has only one more week."

In the car today, Emma insisted on hearing only Supercalefragelistic, Poopin on the Potty and Hokey Pokey- the car ride to the beach is going to be fun if these are the only three songs she'll tolerate. It is funny to watch them listen to the Hokey Pokey as they do the motions from their car seat.

This afternoon, it was off to Tobi's house to swim at her pool. Clara and Emma wore their vests and were excited to be in the big pool. Thankfully, there were amazing mother's helpers there that came to help out at the playdate in the pool. Clara and Emma had a blast and it was a fun afternoon with friends. Mommy held a new baby today and Clara, Emma and Justin gathered around and asked if they could tickle his toes and say hi. It was adorable. Emma said "Mommy, why doesn't he talk?"

Tonight, Emma dropped something on the floor and exclaimed, "Oh my god." They enjoyed some marching band for Daddy and acting out something to do with helpers- Mommy thinks they got it from camp- they ask each other if they want to be today's helper and then assign a task.
