On Saturday, O and her daisy troop, and four parent volunteers, including chez moi, participated in Girl Scout Encampment. It was a fun filled day of activities and no running water. O tie dyed, participated in nature walks, learned about bald eagles and even won a freeze dance competition. She also experienced using porta-potties. By the end of the day she refused to put anymore Purell on her hands. She missed soap and water. It's a good thing her leaders brought handy wipes.
It was a full twelve hour day. We left at 7:30 am and returned home around 7:30 pm where my wonderful husband had dinner ready along with a fat glass of red wine waiting my arrival, as well as a big steak for the huntresses upon their return (O had a quesadilla actually).
Over dinner O told her daddy all about the day. She said, "It was so much fun." My husband replied, "That's so great. You should tell mommy thank you for going with you."
O looked at me with a big smile and said, "Mommy, thank you so much. I had fun with you. Let's never do that again." Kindergarten SUCKS!
