Diva Camp Day 3

Dear Charlie Bear,

Today we went to Equipping the Saints...the mission that Poppa and Diva work .  You got to meet some of Diva's friends that volunteer to sort clothing from my big mountain of black trash bags.  You also got to roll some clothing in boxes, and put them in the compactor.  Poppa even let you let climb Mount Clothesmore.




 Poppa gave you a tour of the building.  You saw a room full of typewriters, a room full of computers, a room full of medical supplies, a room full of tools, several rooms full of books and one room you liked really well.  A room full of musical instruments.  Who knows maybe one day you will be in a boy band....you really liked the keyboards.



Poppa explained that we collect items that missionaries need to help people in other countries.  Some times we send medical supplies ( like the lead xray apron you have on), or Bibles, or clothing.  It is hard work.  Poppa moves boxes into large sea containers for shipment to other countries.  So today you were a boy with a mission.





After Henry's nap we all went to a special playground called "A Dream Come True"  it is a park that some Girl Scouts made so even handicapped children can play.  It had lots of play equipment, slides, and neat things to do.  We had a picnic lunch there and stayed till it started getting dark.  I think you like Gypsy Hill Park better but it is a nice place to run, jump and wiggle all your cares away.

On the way home, Poppa stopped at Dollar General and gave each of you 2 dollars to buy the best toy you could find.    You chose a yellow plastic motorcycle.

We also got to talk to Mommy and Daddy on Skype this afternoon.  It was a really fun day.

I love you.....Your Diva
