Well day two started without Daddy to help out since he had to go home last night to work the next couple of days, today should be fine but I'm sure by tomorrow I will be anxiously awaiting his return. I was awaken by Aidan who heard people going into the kitchen, our cabin is on the hill behind the cafeteria, I drowsily told him that they were just making breakfast and the rest of the campers WERE NOT awake and to go back to sleep...he didn't. So after laying there a while he got up and joined Papa in the cafeteria for the adult devotional while I got the other two ready. Ethan as always was anxious to see get his Papa fix, and after breakfast found the best stick on a walk, Papa commented that he hoped he wouldn't get the same fixation with sticks that Cooper did; who would find any stick no matter size or shape and pick it up to swing around like a sword!

| Ethan and Papa found the perfect stick together! |

| Bible Class! |
It was the first day of bible class for all my little pre-campers and we had so much fun learning about the parable of the three types of soil and that we wanted to be the good soil and live our lives for the Lord.
Later Jennifer Paine informed me that Samantha and Ethan were in front of Grammy and Papa's trailer playing...so I walked over there. I found them swinging on the the railing up to the girls upper cabins and Ethan was tickled to have found a new ability. He used this new talent later in the day with Aidan and Logan, he couldn't miss out on the action.

| Getting into mischief with Samantha! |
 |
| Look I can swing! |
 |
| This became the swinging bar for all the precampers. |
It hasn't failed to surprise me with the amount of adoration Ethan has for Papa, if it's not Papa it's Nono and this week, it's ALL about Papa. For those that don't know this yet about Ethan he has the worst stubborn streak out of all my children and has hit the independent age of two and wants no help for anything; but if it's Papa it seems to be a different story. Papa is the only person he will let feed him anything, crazy but cute!

| Look at that adoration! |
Campfire was so fun, David Hubbard asked Aidan and Mikyla to be in a skit with him called "The Candy Shop". It was hilarious and they were so excited to be in it, "10 cents worth of licorice", and a tall ladder to get to that licorice is all that is needed to get such giggles out of the two of them, as well as the rest of the audience. Day 2 of camp down, five more fun filled days left. What will tomorrow bring, a little more learning the Word, and a whole lot more dirt!

| They were never far from eachother1 |
 |
| picking out the perfect jokes to tell at campfire! |
 |
| pretending the pinecones were choo choo trains, of course! |
 |
| "10 cents worth of licorice please." |
 |
| Aidan thought David Hubbard was too funny! |
A note from Miss Stephanie: She said that Mikyla and Aubrey were digging by her trailer and she over heard their conversation. "Let's pretend that we have evil parents who are really, really mean to us." "And let's pretend that they are so evil they make us dig, and dig, and then we break free and are released from being prisoners" I hope they aren't using real life experiences for their stories.
