This may have been the best experience I've had in a while!
Seriously!
I worked everyday, all summer at this camp. It was like going home. You see, I worked at another Montessori school before having my family. This was like coming full circle in my adult life. I not only enjoyed seeing the campers and counselors everyday, I found a little piece of myself that I forgot was there. I remembered skills I had long forgotten I had with children. In the last few years I have turned into a mama that yells, OK I yell a lot! I knew it was happening and no matter what I did to try to stop it, I just couldn't. For me being in an environment that re-directs, calmly explains, or gently leads individuals to good choices works! It helped me re-direct myself, calmly explain to myself and help lead me to better choices.
Nuff said! I think I'm gonna be a better mama for finding this lil piece of myself again!
I look forward to returning next summer!
(Maybe with the kiddos!)
