Frogs that can't swim, chatting with Owls.

How do you change something that you would rather not change but absolutely need to change any way? Something that is just so thrilling and fulfilling?

Like being loud with 5th graders? It is day three of the week and when I'm saying I'm honest it is this... I have a problem. Yes I openly admitted it. I LOVE singing camp songs, making silly voices and doing owl calls...What's it to you?  However my voice... My vocal chords highly, HIGHLY dislike me right now because of it. The energy that is expelled from kids is some of the best energy that can in many cases (not all) fill your cup to the brim and fill your quota for laughter, love and smiles.

There is something about a child's laughter that sets the world right. Something that even though my throat hurts after I have been working for literally 13+ hours straight, it makes me want to sing one more song, to share jokes and make them smile.

Yes... I have done it again. I have stretched it a little too far when it comes to using aspects of this tent beyond the ability that it has to continue with out discomfort... But tonight, I just don't care because these kids are The Bees Knees.
