Jamie was at camp this week with his best buddy Will. He enjoyed himself very much and occasionally reasons other than Will were given for why he liked camp, and even other kids were referenced from time to time. But mostly it's all about Will.
Connor and I went today to the camp-ending "talent show" and awards ceremony today. The talent portion of the program consisted of some fun songs that the kids had learned. Jamie did not sing and seemed slightly inconvenienced to have to be quiet while the other kids did. I asked him later and he said simply that he doesn't like singing. Then they gave out awards. Each kid got one, for accomplishments like "most spirited", "Best dress-up princess", "Best block-builder," etc. Of course I was very interested to hear what Jamie's award would be. But as soon as the presenter said "This is our only award that is going to TWO campers" I knew what was coming. Sure enough, Jamie and Will shared the "Best buddies" award for being such good friends to each other, and it was added, to everybody else. Cute. One of the other teachers commented as they came to get their ribbons together "Can't have one without the other!"
