This morning I woke up very early -- around 5 a.m. -- to the sound of pouring rain, and thought, "Oh no, how am I going to stay cheerful and peppy and enthusiastic with all this rain?" Honestly, it's kind of tough to do so with the weather we've been having at Ballibay. Almost every day we've had a combination of thunderstorms and bright sunshine, often alternating between the two extremes over and over. Somehow I mustered the energy to get up and shower, and wake up my wonderful campers in G5, and get the day started.
I'll be honest, at first it wasn't easy. But then I got to breakfast, where I sit with some of the most energetic kids here (some of the girlies from G1) and they perked me right up. By the time breakfast was over, the sun was shining and I can say with no hesitation that my whole day was just...better. There's something special about Ballibay campers; they possess the ability to brighten days just by the way they speak and act, or even just by the smile they give you across the dining hall. Every single one of them is one of a kind.
