Now that camp is over for the summer, one of the things that strikes me is how quiet it is around this place. Summer brings the sounds and sights of kids having a blast outdoors- swimming, playing, running, chasing, and using “outdoor voices.” They are doing what kids do best, and it’s a joy to watch.
Greetings from Strong Rock! This is Corie Himstedt, camp owner, director, and resident mom. I’m honored to have the opportunity in this new section of the blog to talk to you about some things that are near to my heart, and to offer thoughts on how we as parents can help our children (and ourselves!) prepare for a terrific summer camp experience.
Now that the new year has begun, my thoughts have turned to the habits I want to change for the upcoming year. One of the things I would like to do better is to have a regularly scheduled daily devotional time. “Time alone” is nearly an oxymoron in our house with four little kids! Perhaps as a parent you feel this way too.
