Lilly and I had a great time with each other this weekend. It was really special being able to zero in on her. As my only daughter, she is so special to me. We spent two nights and three days in the Ellijay mountains. The drive up there was so quiet and peaceful without the other boys... great Lilly-Dad share time. We slept in a 12-bunk cabin with no heat and plywood doors that didn't really close(can you say freezing?...we were cold to the core). Some highlights were: hanging out in the cabins, eating outside, canoeing, riding a 4-wheeler together, writing in our journals :), the "Drop Zone" (big swing in the woods), and a 400-foot zip line that started from a platform 60 feet in the air. It was awesome to see how brave she was with these events and trusting that if Daddy said it was safe, then she trusted it completely. She was the only girl to just let go of the zip line and relax in the harness. The camp leaders said she looked like a professional. She was also very bubbly around the other girls, asking them their name, goofing off with them... at one point I walked into a cabin and they were all standing in a circle singing "Little Sally Walker" and each girl would come out into the middle and do a funky dance, then choose someone else. She's got a little Daddy in her :). I will never forget our weekend together and I pray that she doesn't either.
