The camp director doesn't do just one thing. Not even ten things. Probably about fifty-eight or more different things. My weekend consisted of making Jambalaya and brownie sundaes for thirty one people. Writing twelve letters to all of the sweet middle school girls. Washing tons of dishes full of Sonlight's famous food. Taking nine amazing kiddos sledding. Leading craft time with eight creative young adults. Snapping two hundred thirty two photos for the Sonlight website. My weekend was made up of lots of crazy camp songs, dressing up in a full body rain suit for game time, helping out with small groups, and a ton of ridiculous dancing. I helped lead energizers, worship songs, and loved every minute of it. I love jumping around to different tasks- that is my preferred work style, so doing all these different things is perfect. I can't believe that the weekend went by so quickly. I formed so many bonds with the campers, and it was so hard to leave them! I have pages full of addresses, phone numbers and birthdays of all my new friends and pen pals. Sonlight is such an amazing place where people of all shapes and sizes can come and just be themselves. 

These beautiful middle-schoolers have taught me that like snowflakes, beauty comes in all shapes and sizes.
