Camp Invention Fun for Son #1!

It's finally Friday !!!

Son finished camp invention a summer program at his elementary school and it has been a blast for him all week!!
Waking up early that first day after a long summer of sleeping in was hard for him because he wasn't sure what to expect.
I was a little apprehensive too and half expected a call to pick him up before the day was through especially being off his ADHD meds all summer long.
I'm so proud of how hard he has been working on behavior, and that is a real feat for an all day, 5 day program for these little guys.
Much to my surprise no meltdowns no calls just a great day and wonderful accounts of inventing and creating and new friends.
 Second day he woke up with a smile and hopped out of bed. The third day he got down out of bed before I even entered the room,...WOW!! By the fourth day he woke up ready for the day before my alarm even went off. I couldn't ask for more of him! I love seeing him eager to learn. Inspiring!

How I wish everyday could be so engaging and exciting during the school year.

Alas, it has come to an end, the fifth and final day, and today there was a showcase of their imaginative week long hard work inventing!! 

 
 
 
The Biggest Tower Ever!
Hurray for Camp Invention!!
I <3 Thee!
