When The 7th Child Goes Away To Camp

Pretty much just dropped him off on the curb.  Literally.
So different than the first child!  The first week long over night camp my oldest child went to was a very big deal in the family.  I personally interviewed each college camp counselor, about curfew times, Internet access, occasion to be with the opposite sex, and stuff like the entire menu. Finally the counselor with the whistle around her neck said, "Is this the first time ever that your child will be separated from you?" Oh my gosh..now just the opposite. The kid says, "Who are the counselors?"  I say, "I don't know, they 're trained whoever they are."  The kid says, "Where do we sleep?" I say, "Oh, they'll have some sort of bed." The kid says, "What will we eat?"  I say, "Oh you can go for long periods of time, like weeks on just one healthy meal."  The kid says, "Should I call very night?'  I say, "No, you don't have to. You'll be fine. But hurry up...it is good to be early for camp."
