Two summers
Click image to enlarge.
We dropped Amanda (or Pooh, or RnBMandy, or Manders, or whatever the hell she is calling herself these days) off at camp yesterday. A wonderful camp that we are all very happy — thank-you Christine — she fell into.
The downside: my baby girl looked so very small next to that big building.
Then we have Nicholas — who doesn’t call himself anything other than grouchy — who should be hanging himself from cliffs in Yosemite as I write this. But he’s not.

He managed to break his arm three days before summer vacation started. Effectively ruling out Outward Bound, and pretty much anything else, for the rest of the summer. So, he gets to spend the summer at home and at the doctors, playing video games and watching his sister pack.
I think I’d be grouchy too.

Big Girl Hair
With a summer of, as she puts it, elite camps ahead of her, Amanda decided it was time for a haircut. This was her first. Sure, she has had a few trims and a couple of gum removal surgeries, but never a haircut. In a real salon. By someone both sober and trained.
This way she will be prepared for both Vassar and Concordia. Yep, thanks to some kind folks and a bit of creative financing, Ms. Amanda should have an interesting summer.
