Today is my last day of work at the Y for a while. Tomorrow I will head down the the lovely Navasota, Texas where I will spend my next two weeks. Population: few. Activities: 1. Joni and Friends. Joni and Friends is a special needs family camp where I will be working for my third summer. I have a camper named Melina who is now 7 years old. She has moderate autism and loves to run. I get to chase her when she pops up from the table at meals and we run together all around camp. The picture is from a shaving cream fight last year. Shaving cream fights are always a bit chaotic, and when you mix in children who are in wheelchairs or cannot see, it always adds to the excitement. Lots of screaming and laughter. That pretty much sums up the whole camp--joy overflowing everywhere. I truly believe that Joni and Friends is the happiest place on earth.
