Raining on Our Parade

Today was my day to kayak but I woke to rain and cold weather. It would have been miserable if we would have attempted to kayak down the river. Instead we played games with the kids at the center and made glass etched frames again. It was a relaxing day. We gathered the girls and watched a chick flick and ate goodies. They loved the movie, The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants. Tomorrow is the treasure hunt and it goes on, rain or shine. T and I have prepared little bags of treasure when they are finished with junk food and pictures from the campout. I hope they enjoy them. I wonder why we aren't blessed with wonderful, sunny weather but I am not the one in control. Nothing is out of His hands and He has ordained what will happen. Despite the rain, we were able to have hang out time and one on one conversations with the campers. The captains were able to get to know their campers much better. These relationships are what makes you cry when you leave and they enter into a special place in your heart you will never forget. These relationships are what change your life. The people are the most important.
