Violin camp has been an experience. Some of these young kids have phenomenal talent and really are wonderful musicians. But, instead of really enjoying all the music and different classes, I have been the bathroom runner for the younger kids. Out of 16 kids, I am the only mom that has stayed the whole day with my child. Which means when a child has to use the restroom, I get that fabulous chore since the teacher cannot stop teaching and the classes are in an old high school and they don't want kids getting lost.
But why should I be surprised that all the difficult, and poorly behaved kids parents drop and run??? They are obviously smarter then I.
I am smiling on the inside though, because there is a young boy there who I believe has Asperger's and is just cute as can be. I swear I am magnetically attracted to these kids. I can find them right off and I love watching and interacting with them. They truly are a gift to this world if people will take a minute, and have patience to understand them.
