Monday, Monday...

We got off to a fast start this morning.  Campbell began Kinder-camp. She is willing to go back tomorrow, so I'll take it that she did okay there. The teacher isn't too personal, so I didn't get a lot of feedback.
I took Conleigh & Alex down to their first day of piano camp. They were both excited. They are in different rooms which is a good thing.  Peter picked them up at noon and he said they both loved it.  He took them out for pizza and brought them home since that was the same time Campbell's camp ended. 
This afternoon our tutor came over and spent 30 minutes with Campbell, and then 30 minutes with Alex. 
After that, we were off to soccer. Alex liked it and got some physical exercise in today.

This evening was the swim team banquet. Man, I feel old. I was so hot in there and it was so loud with all the screaming on the teenagers. Ugh.
Alex cleaned house. One of the dad's said he looked like Flavor flave (a rapper from the 80s) he had so many medals around his neck. Five in all.  That is hard on friends and sisters to see one person get so much recognition. Conleigh was sad. She got six ribbons, but the medals are hard to see. Alex really handled it all very humbly and didn't flaunt it at all.
It is so hard to see kids not be nice to each other and especially to your kid.  Sweet Conleigh went to sit down with other 7 & 8 year old girls. The girl next to her got up and moved down to the other end of the row. Then the next one did, and when Conleigh went to scoot over, the next girl put her hand out and said, this seat is taken.  I was heartbroken.  This parenting thing is harder than I ever, ever thought it would be.
