For the kids--it's the fun, the camaraderie and the ability to be around others with similar experience.
For the adults--It's simple. It's all about the campers!
I'm tired, I still smell whipped cream up my nose and in my ears (my hair has been washed three times but it still stinks of a sugary substance!), and I'm overwhelmed with love for this place.
Heading home tomorrow morning.

Oh, L--Benji said at the mic tonight that he is definitely not ready to leave--he had a BLAST!!

welcome home Ms. jenny! cant wait for more detail....
Jenny,
I found your blog on Sarah H.'s blog. Sarah and I went to college together for a short time. Anyway, I love your story and Maggie is beautiful. I have my own little Maggie, born on 4/4/07. Maggie Jane is a heart baby. They found several heart deformities during her discharge exam. She had her 1st surgery at 6 days old and has 2 more to come. We don't know what life holds after that. I love your entries about Camp Discovery. There is a heart camp here in St. Louis called Camp Rythym and Maggie gets to go to that when she is 4. I am planning on volunteering next summer and I can't wait. Anyway, I don't know the pain you have felt and I hope that I never have to, but I do know the fear of that pain. I fear it every day. Your optimism is great!
Hugs,
Faith
