Mountains and Strings

When we found out Camp Kita was not happening this year, Joseph learned that his cello teacher's family camp, Mountains and Strings, was going forward the same week. So Monday, Annalina and I took him to Harriman State Park and left him there for the week. He had a blast! He learned so much, made some amazing new friends, and was happier than I've seen him in a while. We got to watch two performances this evening and he is such a great cellist. And the thing is, he absolutely loves playing! And I enjoy listening. Thanks to the talented Ferguson family, for creating a safe and happy place for these kids to learn, perform, and belong.

Camp Away From Camp

A huge thank you to Camp Kita for the "camp in a crate" they sent Joseph since Camp was canceled due to Covid. Not the same as camp, but a really cool way to remind the kids they are loved and remembered!

Along with tie dye kit, felt kits, t-shirt, hat, a heart stone, games, Frisbee, sunglasses, mushroom fact cards, water bottle, journal, flashlight, a yearbook full of pics, and more...he also got little notes from the camp staff. So sweet!!
