It's Great Being 10 Years Old!

John is having a great summer here at Campground Oz, we live at camp during the summer.  We hate going to town, and love the relaxed environment that we have here.

John loves being 10 years old, he feels he has more freedom and can do more things independently.  He has really taken off this year.  He has finally started swimming on his own although he knew how last year. He was just so scared of everything that he was afraid to try.  He was swimming on top and one of my dearest friends gave him a swim mask and now he is swimming like a fish.

He also decided to ride his bike which has been a battle for about 3 years.  He was telling his friend how to ride his, so I said "John that sounds like good advice you should try that yourself".  He then went and got his bike, got on it and rode it!  I was amazed, I was yelling "He's riding his bike, John your doing it"!   It has been a great summer here! 

John has not had any melt downs and in fact both children are doing well.  I am sure there will be many adjustments in November.  I wish we could be here all year round.

Hope everyone else is enjoying the summer, enjoy your children they grow up very fast.
