So its another lazy sunday. The last day of my senior spring break. i wish i could say i lived it up, went to the beach, had a crazy, awesome time. but i cant because i didnt. I stayed at home alot. didnt get alot done, just chilled, colleged, hung around, smoothied, well i did get back from disney, talked to friends, showed Jacob around memphis, got a prom date and stuff like that.

But today i did something different. I made a paper chain. Takes ya back, doesnt it? back to the days of waiting with bated breath for Santa to come down the chimney, for whatever else you make paper chains for to happen. This chain counts down to 1: Graduation, and 2: Lutheran Camp. 2 i am without a doubt excited about. Today in sunday school Twinkie, Adidas, Speedo, Ziggy, Diva and I went around to the of age classrooms and sang songs and told the kids about camp. we wore camp shirts and we were totally pumped. Its honestly our favorite thing.

It strikes me though, every time we talk about it. I dont know how to explain it. They just love it so much. which is normal. we all love it. but because i know them outside of camp its weirder. not how much they love it, but how much... it loves them? it really means something to them and just watching them get SO excited about it is something, well, godly. its amazing that hangin out with 3-6th graders and a coupla other counselors for a week could mean so much. something makes it so pure, even if we're not. maybe thats why campgrounds are so special. Maybe Jacob's right; maybe there IS a bubble, not just around Lakeshore, but around every camp like that. How else do you explain this? I cant. Its God. this love IS GOD.
