I used to work for a camp for kids and adults with disabilities, and before that was a Girl Scout Camp counselor working with special needs kids among others. So your blog made me very nostalgic! Especially about the spaghetti special diet. Definitely not the most unique diet I've heard of - sounds really normal for camp. I hope Max had a really good time and wants to go back. It's such a growing experience for campers (and for their families). I just discovered your blog but i love it already.Liyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15581425756507427661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-401303964563152307.post-25988677202164572952011-07-04T22:30:12.124-04:002011-07-04T22:30:12.124-04:00It's definitely wildlife season - we had a rac...It's definitely wildlife season - we had a raccoon in our attic, but managed to get a professional to trap it; and best of all, we managed to keep it a secret from the one kid who would have been freaked out by it. The guy from the pest service carried it out the door not 8 feet from where my daughter was sitting, and she didn't even look up from her iPod! That's service.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-401303964563152307.post-60524681803629099742011-07-04T17:35:05.733-04:002011-07-04T17:35:05.733-04:00I have to say, the Southampton Fresh AIr Home look...I have to say, the Southampton Fresh AIr Home looks absolutely amazing.

As for that uninvited guest of the rodent persuasion that you had at your house, I am glad he left without too much of a fight! Our neighbor downstairs often deliberately leaves bread and/or food outside in the backyard and often leaves her door wide open when it's really hot - and I am waiting for the day a squirrel - or something bigger - comes trotting into HER living room!Sabrina Steylinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10502908654294596013noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-401303964563152307.post-75718805810473152352011-07-04T12:13:58.973-04:002011-07-04T12:13:58.973-04:00Gotta love squirrels!

It ran down the hall and scurried out through the drier vent hook-up! (I didn't have a drier yet) It had chewed right through a couple boxes of cereal. I later found some of the cereal stowed in my winter boots.Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08986080963534940625noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-401303964563152307.post-859003379471913662011-07-04T10:47:11.794-04:002011-07-04T10:47:11.794-04:00I can't wait to hear more about his time AG ca...I can't wait to hear more about his time AG camp.

Two hours- nicely done! Within fifteen minutes of dropping E. off, I had questions I forgot to ask the director. (I didn't have his cell number in my cell, somehow, so i couldn't call until we got home two hours later.)<br /><br />That first day he's gone is crazy. But it sounds like he's in such good hands, and you're giving Sabrina the extra attention, and I'm so happy for all of you.Staying Afloathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06228636990839399469noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-401303964563152307.post-76896886468461090572011-07-04T08:34:04.638-04:002011-07-04T08:34:04.638-04:00You are so lucky that Max has the option to go to ...You are so lucky that Max has the option to go to a sleep-away camp! I'm in South Africa and even though we have excellent facilities for special needs children, there are no camps here yet. I would love to be able to send our Travis to camp for a week - he's on holiday for another two weeks and he misses having friends around terribly.Stacey Veehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06996243809087714101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-401303964563152307.post-5805631098138326752011-07-04T07:42:39.235-04:002011-07-04T07:42:39.235-04:00YAY I'm so glad Max went to camp and I know th...YAY I'm so glad Max went to camp and I know that it takes everything in you not to call the camp all the time but I know you can do it and besides IF there's a problem they will call you :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-401303964563152307.post-69330600407107776612011-07-04T02:27:59.436-04:002011-07-04T02:27:59.436-04:00lol

It's for kids with physical disabilities and I went for six years - the best six years of my life. It is absolutely the best place in the universe, and it really bonded me with other kids like me. The camp director, David, is pretty much the most amazing person in the universe.
