Disabilities, Dumbutts, and Disaster

I'M BAAAAAAAAAACK! (kids run away in terror) Ok, so the reason I was away on an impromptu hiatus was because I was volunteering for two weeks. Back to back. And I am half delirious while writing this because for one week I was a nanny for 9 kids and just this past week I was a mother for 1. Anyway I will start yakking 'cause that's what I do best.

week 1:
Like I said I was a nanny to nine kids in our church's VBS, it was really fun but I only had two little girls and a whole bunch of super hyper active boys. Long story short, really awesome but seriously taxing.

week 2:
Now this one is the really interesting week. I had the privilege of going and volunteering at a camp for disabled kids. It was my first full week away from home by myself and mom was pretty sad to see me go and away I went. I was a junior counselor but my real counselor had two campers and jr. counselors so I was basically the counselor. My camper was Taryn. She's a ten year old kid who looks six and acts four. She is absolutely adorable. She can't communicate verbally and generally ignores a lot of things but she is very sweet. Taryn wasn't difficult but she isn't very independent so I had to get food for her, wipe her bum, give her books, and make sure she's having fun. I really loved this because I haven't really had any experience with kids with disabilities so it was real eye-opener for me. Now, the counselors got really close too. There was this one boy, Ryan, and this is where the dumbutt part comes in. He has got to be the densest guy I've every met but me and all his friends had a blast teasing him. We teased each other too but he was just clueless! And the most eventful thing that happened all week was that my camper pooped in the pool. he mum had said that she didn't need swimmers but just to make sure I took her to the bathroom before we went into the water. Not 5 minutes into it I noticed this brown cloud poofing up behind her whenever she move in the pool. So I took her to the bathroom and lo and behold, there was a nice present for me to clean up. I really felt like a mom then. Anywho, I could go on and on but I won't 'cause I actually want you to keep your ears and sanity intact. Till next time!

AHHHH HARRY POTTER!

I don't know if you know this but the Harry Potter movie series is coming to an end. The Deathly Hollows Pt. 2 premiers in Canada on July 17. Saw this YouTube video and would have cried if I was the crying type of person. Okay, maybe I am that kind of person and maybe I teared up a little bit but seriously, this movie kills.
