Worry
The biggest problem we are having right now is that Caroline seems to not understand the word "boundaries" and "you may not cross them." She has been so lonely for friends that she has been taking off on her bike to a nearby park, where she has befriended a group of boys who skate there. Great. If we could afford to have her in camp the whole summer, we would. I am really hoping that this week at camp starting on Monday will result in a new friend or two to hang out with. This afternoon she was down at the end of our street on the banks of the river where another boy appeared with his dog. Too many ways and places for her to get in trouble around here. And we are not convinced the mania is completely gone.
She is a damsel in distress. A beautiful and lonely girl.......
ReplyDeleteAre there church service projects she might participate in?
Send her to me Megan. :) She can go to summer school (camp style) with Gabriel all summer - lots of teenagers and lots of supervision. Win-win.
