About a month ago, Camryn was named Field Day Co-Captain. We have been hearing all about it ever since. On Friday, Field Day finally arrived. I was one of the parent volunteers. The teachers were assigned to man certain stations, so it was up to the parents to get the class to each event. The kids were crazy excited, so it was a little hard keeping them all together, but we made it through the day without losing anyone.
The kids loved all the water events. Usually, Field Day in May would be wicked hot, but there was just enough breeze that it was cold when the kids were wet.
I loved Cam's face in this picture! Camryn was a great co-captain. There was a girl in her group that needed a little extra help getting to where she needed to be, being shown how to play the games, and to be led back when she started to wander off. Camryn stayed right by her and helped her the whole morning. I asked Cam if her teacher had told her to help the other girl. She said, No but she knew that the girl would need help. How sweet is she! It is nice to be reminded that you have good kids once in a while.
Field Day ended with watching the 5th graders run a relay race while enjoying a refreshing Big Stick. It was a fun day, and while we got slightly pink we didn't get burned like we usually do!
