Dear Gava,
Pretty much everyone is calling you Gava now. Your brother started this trend, and you seem to think its pretty cool.
You are busy these summer days! We have done swimming for a week then this week you have Water/Sand/Dirt Camp, then next week swimming again!
We walk down the street to the Brookside Swim Club, where you have one on one lessons. You are doing great! You asked to do the lessons, because you wanted to "learn strokes" so we signed you up! You are doing freestyle like a champ and can float on your back...almost backstroke. Its incredible how hard you work, and how quick you pick up things. You really do put 100% into what you do, and it shows.
You love camp too. Your instructor is Teacher Jennifer's daughter, Sara, and you LOVE her. She was your horse camp instructor too, so this is PERFECT for you. You adore her, can't wait to see her, and hug her the entire day. She calls you her "Gavin Belt" and says she wears you around. Oh boy, you love her. She says that you are most focused on helping her throughout camp. Singing kids in to camp, passing out name tags, setting up projects, leading the project, giving instructions, cleaning up, and putting things away. She said she didn't ask or expect you to do these things, but you want to, so she let you do it! So there you have it, running your first summer camp at age 5! The beauty of Sara (Just like her mom Jennifer) is that she recognizes your interests and strengths and she lets you run with it. What a neat thing.
You are out of 5T totally, and into 6T some 7T! You are in size 1 shoe and as tan as ever. Your little body browns JUST like your daddy!
Still napping. Still going to bed at 8 and sleeping 10 hours. We are thankful.
You turn SIX in one month. OH MY GOODNESS. Then you start K~! WHERE HAS MY BABY GONE???
LOVE you Gava to the moon!
Love-
Momma
