5 days and 4 nights... NN goes off on Science Camp in Scotts Valley. This isn't her first time away from home. In 4th grade, she went on the Gold Rush Mining Camp. Then in 5th grade, she went to the very same Science Camp weeks before SIP. But both times... mommy was a chaperone. This time, she's there alone. We didn't want to be the overbearing parents... but alas... this was her first time out alone. So we did clamp down a bit on her packing... including granola bars and a cup of noodles. Heh.
As the days go by… we have a chaperone sending out pics and videos of the kids. They’re happy. They’re safe. So grateful for this parent. And I’m a little weary… that in front of SW… we don’t spend too much time admiring these texts. He’s just as important to us as NN is.
And in the midst of all this…oddly… I don’t find myself missing NN. For one… she’s happy. And for two… she’s happy. Does anything else really matter??
