Church Camp

Friday night I drove down with another Church friend to pick up The Boy and and my Church friends daughter from a week of self-defense camp. They had a GREAT time!!! It's fun to listen to them share about their week. They were on the verge of goofy for most of the ride home but eventually crashed. We got home just after 12:30 a.m.

Here's a picture of him breaking a board....he came home with a broken board that he did an "Elbow Strike" with. AWESOME!!!

Here's a picture of him doing a demonstration...



Yesterday with my mother-in-law we drove The Boy down to a different camp for this week. He had to be there for check in at 5 p.m. making for a fast turn around.

As we pulled into the long gravel drive leading up to the main building of the camp he'd be staying for this week, he let out a big happy sigh and said, "It feels like home"

He LOVES both places and I was having some mommy issues about having him gone for 2 weeks in a row. BUT, his heart is in both places, there is amazing leadership and amazing things happen during these weeks at camp. It brings peace and comfort to my mommy heart to see him surrounded by awesome people who love God like he does. It is clear why it feels like home to him.
