Dear Mom and Dad,
Can you believe I have now been gone five nights!!  I just want to thank you for trusting me to go so far from home on my own this week.

Dear Mom and Dad,
I can’t believe that the week is halfway over. Sunday night it felt like this time would never come and now I wish it was Sunday night again!

Dear Mom and Dad,

Is it too early to sign me up for camp next year? We are having the best time and learning so much about the outdoors, hiking in the woods, poison ivy (I don’t itch anymore) and knives in our Woodsman class.

Do you remember how I left you last night in my letter home?  I was looking forward to going to sleep listening to the raindrops on my Adirondack roof.  Well, soon after that the sky opened up!

Dear Mom and Dad,

Wow, I never realized when you told me a couple of months ago how I would enjoy Boy Scouts so much you were really telling the truth!! This is just awesome. I am so happy Mr. Satterfield gave me permission to get on his computer and write you tonight.
