... with Tyler that is!
Everyone has seem to get back to normal after our crazy week...everybody except the little Miss!
For the past 2 days she has been rotten! She was an Angel while I was gone and we only had a few tears when I would call and tell them good night. ( yes they had a "CELL PHONE PARKING LOT" at the camp... only 5 mins (driving) from where we were so we(the leaders) would load up and come down for our nightly good night calls! Thank you Pres. Hinckley for thinking of EVERYTHING)Please keep in mind I have NEVER left them for this long , and Trav was in WA for half the time... crappy timing I KNOW, So when I got home...well, I was in BIG trouble!
After 2 days of sassiness(more than usual for her) rudeness and just plan old naughtiness. I had to sit her down and give her the " what the heck is going on" talk.
I found out that it was "MY FAULT" for making her feel like an orphan, and she didn't like it , and I owed her big time!
SO I am on "payback" I have snuggled, hugged, taught and sung (over and over )camp songs that I would be perfectly happy to NOT hear again for a very long time, went over every little detail of what we did while I was gone, and PROMISED not to leave her that long again for a very very long time. (if I can help it)
So let’s hope after a few days of this (because she never lets anyone off easy... I am hoping it is only a few days) She will be back to her normal happy, helpful self :)
*Thanks to everyone who called/ stopped by and checked up on them. They did AMAZING! I think it was a good learning /growing experience for all of us. Not that I want to do it again any time soon, but I am grateful I got to go.
