July/August 2011

This was the summer before Kaitlyn turned 6 and Claire turned 4.  I wanted the girls to have an opportunity to go to summer camps together before Kaitlyn turned 6 and couldn't do camps with Claire until she was 8.  We attended a week at Killarney and two weeks at Riley Park.  The first week was a "mandarin speaking" camp-Kaitlyn starts Mandarin bilingual at Norquay this September and I wanted her to have some background before starting, afriad she may hate it.  But she actually had a GREAT time and can count to 10 and name some fruits in mandarin already!  The girls love playing together-they can be really sweet to each other when they want to.  And Kaitlyn really does look after her little sister!!
