Nick's Home from Hole in the Wall Gang Camp

Nick attended his first week ever of sleep over camp. He did great. Greg & I picked him up this morning. We were sent to the dining hall to get him and when we walked in Nick was dancing (w/one of his councilors) to the music. We both just watched him and he was still so happy. Once the song was over, I ran over and hugged him. Tears were, again, in my eyes and he was just smiling so brightly and hugging me tight. The councilors had so many positives things to say about Nick and I told them I was looking forward to hearing all about his week on the way home. In true Nick fashion, he did not dissappoint us. He talked the whole way home about camp. There were so many activities that he had opportunity to do this past week and most importantly, he made lots of friends at camp. He rode horses, swam, caught a bunch of fish, theatre, carnival night, woodshop and so much more. He told us funny incidents that happened during the week with the councilors and his friends.
Here is one of his stories: "I caught Lucy, no lips fish. See, the first person who caught Lucy,had the hook on her upper lip and her lip came out. the second person who caught it had the hook on the lower lip and it came out. I caught her on the cheek but you know, the lips will grow back on Lucy."
Another one: "The sad part of camp is once you stay in cabin 15 (the last one), you can no longer be a camper." Nick was in cabin 1 and he has 8 more years before that will happen. We explained to him that he could be an LIT (Leader in training) after that.
He also learned how to TP (yes, toilet paper) the cabins. He said he could throw the roll really good over the cabin. What 7 yr old knows how to do that these days? He kept saying "I can TP really good."
A week from Sunday we will be driving Colby to camp (siblings week) and Nick is already excited to go back and see his councilors. We know Colby will have a wonderful and exiting experience, just like Nick.

I am so glad camp was a success. We are thinking about it for next year..not sure the kids are willing as they have never been away from home before, also they have to go separate weeks!

Love,
Katy

I’m giving a testimony about Dr. KOKOBI the great Herbalist, he has the
cure to all manner of diseases, he cured my  breast cancer, though I
went through different website I saw different testimonies about
different spell casters and herbalist, I was like: ‘Many people have
the breast cancer remedy, So why are people still suffering from it?’ I thought of
it, then I decided to contact kokobiherbalremedycentre@gmail.com , I didn’t believe him that
much, I just wanted to give him a try, he replied my mail and Needed
some Information about me, then I sent them to him, he prepared it
(CURE) and sent it to Airfreight Online Courier Service for delivery,
he gave my details to the Courier Office, they told me that 3-5 days I
will receive the package and i took the medicine as prescribed by him
and I went for check-up 1 week after finishing the medicine, I was
tested breast cancer negative, if you are breast cancer patient or any cancer patient at all. Do me
a favour for you to contact him and I will try my possible best to make
sure you get cured, when you contact him, make sure you tell him that
