Another week gone

Time is flying here in Moshava.  Trying to figure out where I left off and update what we’ve done since we’ve come.  Keren is still having a hard time and not loving the whole gan thing.  She did much better at Camp Ma-Tov.  Today they asked her if she wanted to go with the bigger kids (the 2 yr. olds) to music class and she said no so they didn’t take her.  I think she would have enjoyed something like that and they just have to force her to go and then she’ll have more fun, rather than sitting inside with babies all day.  I told them next time to just take her hand and say, we are going.

Talia passed the deep water test.  Not only that, the lifeguard put her in a group with Eidah Bet girls!!  So she is thrilled to be swimming with the big girls.  Actually, she is BEYOND thrilled.   She went from not wanting to swim at all to swimming every day with quite a bit of enthusiasm.  She is not loving gan but she is looking forward to joining the kaytana on Sunday, where she will be in a real bunk with kids her age. 

Benjamin is having a great time!  I was so worried about him leaving Ma-Tov b/c he had such a fantastic month last moth.   Here  he is doing great also.  He has a great group of boys that he plays with and I hardly see him at all in between gan and meals.

As for me, I am loving camp as usual!  At night we hang out with friends and I am enjoying the office work during the day.  One night we actually got a huge screen put up in front of our bunk and showed a movie there for a bunch of us.  It was so much fun.

Otherwise, it’s the same thing every year.
