From July 6th to July 10th I was at something my church calls Kids Kamp.
Last year I didn't know what to expect, but it was a great escape from a troubled mind.
This year though it was no escape, what it was, was a wonderful experience.
The picture above is simply a small sample of what really went on.
The week was very touching
I was a co-counselor.
Counselor Benji Pacheco:
My children were 3rd and 4th graders.
They were wonderful.
Really got me with all their innocence.
It was great keeping them alive.
I love that kind of responsibility.
Here they go:
And on top of having a great time with the kids,
and old love appeared, nearly unexpectantly.
That experience was both good and bad,
but in the end, things always work out.
So today I say "for the sake of the kids",
and "for the sake of my love and the love of others":
We can't give up.
Things can change.
People do grow up,
and others can.
Life is about the maintenance of life.
There's gotta be a balance.
And you gotta know what your doing.
Good luck, cause we all need some of it sometimes.
I wish I could say more, by I truly can't.
This experience, can it be put in words?

Gosh....sounds fun..
Reminded me of some camp I went for last year. I went as a Runner...nope not like a marathon runner or something, but a Runner is someone who runs about and does errands. Yeap, like Andrea running about for Miranda in Devil Wears Prada. But I wasn't alone. There was like a whole team of Runners. The campers were younger than us runners, but it wasn't really obvious especially for the girls from UK. They were TALL. I was 15-ish and they were just 12 and 13-ish...bloody ackward.
BY the way, a school record is like a record book where you record down students that a present or absent in a particular day...
No, you can't put that into words, mate. It grows on you, doesn't it? I am exposed to primary kids all day long and they never cease to amaze me with their wisdom and innocence. Those are the better years.
