Hope everyone had an amazing week and is ready for the weekend! ☀️
Today I’ll be Zombie Momma Lena… functioning on 2 hours of sleep. 😴 We were up late getting my daughter packed for her camping trip that starts on Monday.
If you know my daughter, she’s definitely not an outdoorsy girl. 😂 Bugs? Dirt? Sleeping outside? Not exactly her idea of a good time. But she’ll be going with her church Life Group, and several of her friends are going too, which makes it a little less intimidating.
She originally didn’t want to go because anything outdoors kind of grosses her out. I gave her a little nudge and told her, “Just try it once. If you end up hating camping, I won’t make you go again next year.” ❤️
Sometimes the best memories happen when we step outside our comfort zone. You never know what you’ll discover about yourself until you give something new a chance.
As excited as I am for her to have this adventure, this momma’s heart is feeling all the emotions. 🥹 I’m going to miss her tremendously, but I also know these are the moments that help our kids build confidence, independence, and memories they’ll carry with them for years.
So this weekend I’ll be catching up on sleep, cheering her on from afar, and hoping she comes home with fun stories instead of too many mosquito bites. 😂🏕️
Question for you: What’s something you were hesitant to try but ended up loving? 🥰
