Connor has been at camp since Tuesday so I've gotten
lots of one on one time with Bennett. He gets to be the only child all
week. I know Connor's having the time of his life so this is totally
guilt-free. Bennett keeps checking the activities schedule at camp to
see what Connor's up to. He and I have played lots of board games,
watched what he wanted on Netflix, and went out
to dinner tonight together. It has been so fun to see his little
spirit shine solo. He's entertaining, intelligent, goofy and super
sentimental. His gentle soul is even sweeter without the competition
for attention with his brother. He enjoys quiet time painting,
coloring, reading and writing stories. He even wrote a letter to Connor
and mailed it to camp. There is no doubt that these two brothers love
and care about each other greatly as evidenced by them both crying
saying goodbye before Connor left. They have been so gracious to each
other about their own individual adventures and love to hear each others
stories. I'm blown away by this. I can't wait for them to be reunited
tomorrow. My boys are pretty awesome. P.S. Matt, I ate actual food tonight!
