MK went to her first day of camp. She came home and practiced and has already shown great strides since she went to the tryouts. She was kind of quiet when I first picked her up, but she opened up and had a lot to say as the night went on. There is a McDonald's right by the school, and they walked there for lunch. That gave her a feeling of independence. She just doesn't get out and alone like I did as a kid. I walked and rode my bike everywhere, but it's a different world.
She frequently reminds us that she will get her learner's permit next year on her birthday. I know I'm not ready for it, but the poor girl gets lessons every time we go anywhere. I am constantly giving her tips (I do know that I am NOT the best driver out there) and telling her the names of roads. The Big Man was surprised when he came to DE with me for the first time that I did not know the names of many roads. I knew things by who lived near them...the way to Noelle's house, by Missy's house, the 7-11 where we stopped that one time...none of which helped him navigate his way around. I'm better now and determined that MK will know where she is.
T. Willy and I had fun while the Big Man was at work and MK was at camp. We played in the pool, and that was a blast. He has not liked the water much before, but he is getting much braver. He's not a fish yet, but I'm hoping he'll continue to gain confidence.
And now a picture of MK's dream car...a white Mustang with a pink stripe. She would love all pink, but we saw this in Destin a while ago, and she still talks about it.

There is someone one town over from our little town who has a PINK mustang. It is quite eye catching!
