It's the little things that mean the most.....

When I pray for these children my prayer is for them to have kind, loving hearts....this is our life...our journey...our Hardy Hearts....

Church Camp

We dropped Riggs of for Church Camp...I would be leaving him here for 4 nights..the longest I have every been away from  him. With no phone calls or texts between us either. Only letters via snail mail that I had mailed last week...and the biggest kicker was that when I left him I was driving to Florida with the other 3 with my mom. I was going to be 12 hours away. Jeremy would be at home if he needed anything but still...it was hard....really hard.... to drop him off.....
We waited in line for the wagon to pick us up...and luckily we were in line with the Fischers.

The wagon arrived and took us to the Senecca TeePee village! Colin was waiting for us!

We got him settled in.....
I took a few more pictures......just longing to fill my camera with a few more images of my boy....


and then I said good bye...and pulled away......

when we reunited days later I asked him about the camp...what he did...what he liked...what he didn't..the memories he made...I soaked in his words....but I wasn't there so I will never it all...this was his experience....all his own....
I do know that the days that followed he seemed to cling to this song...that he learned there....a catchy rock song with these words....

Let it be known 
That our God saves 
Our God reigns 
We lift You up up 
Let it be known 
That love has come 
Love has won 


and that makes my heart happy!
