kate had her first day of summer camp today. she went to the same camp last summer (and it's held at the preschool she goes to during the school year). i remember the first day of camp last year - neither kate nor i knew any of the other kids or moms and we mostly stuck to ourselves.
what a difference a year makes. this morning kate saw all of her friends from her class and there were hugs and little girl screeching all around. i got to talk to some other moms (and met a new one). it was so different and so nice. we belonged.

isn't it nice to have put in some roots? i always feel awkward the first time i am doing something new. it is such a relief the second time when i already know what to expect and feel as if i fit in. that's great that you guys belong! :)

I envy you. Even in Seattle, the scary bald bearded man at the park gets the cold shoulder.
Poor Liv. The product of an antisocial father.
Does that mean you'll stop looking for a new place to live? I can't bear the thought!
