Who wants Ice Cream?!!

Nicholas started his second week of summer camp today. This week the theme is "Safari". As always, when I picked him up, he was bubbling over with excitement to tell me about all of the cool things they did today. He was excited to tell me that a friend of his was also in his class this week but he wouldn't just come out and tell me. He made me guess! He gave me a clue and said, "His name starts with a 'Ch' sound." So I named the only friend of his that came to mind but got it wrong. Then he said, "He also has 'ace' in his name". Well, of course that would be Chase! How fun that he used phonics as a clue to his guessing game!

On the way home, I decided it was so hot outside that we needed something special to cool ourselves off. I asked, "Who wants ice cream?". Of course, Nicholas did! We stopped at Baskin-Robbins. He had said that he wanted Cotton Candy ice cream but once we got there he picked out a crazy neon-colored ice cream called something like "Make Me Wild" which was a blend of three different flavors. It actually tasted pretty good and I enjoyed mine too. But most of all, we just enjoyed hanging out together and having fun.
