Despite the rain.....

...it's been a fun two days.  Emma is having a wonderful time with her new friends and we are having a hard time keeping her out of the creek. I asked her what was her favorite part of the day, and she said "Explorin' and playin' wiff out you followin' me, Mommy!!"

I guess my girl needs her space...the three girls have been pretty much glued together the past two days.  The two girls came and got Emma at 8am and I didn't see them till lunch time. After lunch, the three if them took off again till almost dinner time. I wish Emma could have this type of freedom more--you know, to just play in creeks, run with her friends and explore, but well, it's just not possible on a daily basis.  I do have a feeling that we will be spending more time here in the future,  though.

Robert has been a good sport about being here on his birthday.  We are in what is called a "Boo-Boo" cabin; basically,  it's a set of bunk beds , a futon a small kitchen area with a mini-frig,  and a very tiny shower/toilet room.  It hasn't bothered us though because we have spent most of our time outdoors. It is a beautiful area, but the camp sites and cabins are pretty close together.  I am surprised at how many families are here with all of the rain....the rain, of course,  hasn't bothered the kids in the least.

It is very late, but I can't sleep.  I know that I'll be sorry tomorrow that I didn't get more sleep,  though. Maybe if I am lucky, I can sneak in a short nap!
