Art Camp & Camping!

This past week (while Jacob was in Princeton--we missed you Abba!), Hersh attended a very sweet Art Camp each morning.  On Friday we attended the Art Show and enjoyed seeing what he had been working on all week.  The instructor, Adrienne, shared with me that Hersh is the first boy she has had attend in a long time attend the camp.  She shared how much she enjoyed having him, remarking on his assuredness, strength in ideas and knowledge, and general disposition.  Hersh enjoyed the experience as well.  Then my very best friend, Katie B, came to visit (next weekend she will return with Meghan!).
Last night we headed to Greenbrier State Park with our dearest friends, the Siegelbaums.  It is a lovely park with a lake, bluegrass music, and hiking trails.  We ate, laughed, sang, and had a wonderful time all around.  AlteLu was down right giddy, and seemed to think that we had moved to the tent--telling us that they would miss her in her ballet class this week (because we would still be camping:) Hersh had a great time with his bestie, Frida, and AlteLu went back and forth between playing with Reuben who is also 3, and Lucy (who is 10), who she idolizes.  Jacob and I had a great time with Sara and Jonas, and we can't wait to do it again next summer!  Such gratitude for having such wonderful friends:)
