Elijah was a little hesitant to go on his first Scout camp. I told him that he would come back with many stories and that he would have a great time....and he did.
He told me that he had a new appreciation for my cooking....The food was not so good
He had a huge appreciation for flushing toilets and toilet paper
He learned how to make a Arabian Mask out of T-shirt
He earned five merit badges
And had a great time.
He told me that his favorite thing about camp was each morning all the scouts got together and sang church hymns. His favorite was when the 400+ Scouts and Leaders sang "Called to Serve", and with tears in his eyes he told me that he felt the Spirit so strong.
We are grateful for this guy. We missed him like crazy the whole week he was gone, and as promised, we had family prayer for him every night at 10:00. The sad thing about it is that I think that we missed him more than he missed us. He is growing into a wonderful Young Man!

He is amazing. Ms. Bologna keeps refering to Adam as an Elija Larson. You guys look like you are having fun during summer. 7 more days until it starts for us.
