June 28: Camp Wildcat love!

Can I just say, Alyssa has been absolutely amazing this summer.  It's been so great to get to see her and hang out every day at work, and every single day she blows me away with how great she is with these kids! 

Let me brag on her for a minute.  She is the head of Camp Wildcat all summer - Camp Wildcat is a VBS type camp that kids can come to for a half or full day.  Week to week, Alyssa has between 6 and 12 kids that are all hers (plus an assistant sometimes). Alyssa comes in every morning before 8am and stays all day through 4 when the kids home, and then she goes back into her room to clean up the various explosions and messes of the day and stays as long as that takes.  Then, add all that to lesson and craft planning and preparing.  She has a different theme of lessons every week and a different lessons and crafts everyday.  And on top of all of that, her kids adore her, and I can see her positively influencing their lives and attitudes everyday! I'm just blown away.  Lyss, call me if you ever need someone to brag on your teaching qualifications, because clearly, I think you are going to be an amazing teacher one day!

P.S. This is how cute Tripp was today.
