Passing July 15 means there's only about six weeks left of summer, but there's still time to get my kids off to camp. This summer has been rewarding in many ways for my teenagers. They have part-time jobs at the local snack bar and they are tutoring some kids in English.
We've taken some family trips to Northern California and seen the sights of our Golden State. It's ao far been a great "Summer with Teenagers."
On August 5, my teenagers will go to SuperCamp at Stanford, in California. It's a ten day experience that I've been excited about for them for a long time. This is their time to have a great "college" experience while still in high school. They will study for the SAT/ACT and they will do challenge exercises individually and as a part of a team. They will master something new. They will make friends and mature.
As I countdown the summer and the days until camp, I know that they are not going to pass this way again. It's a time for them to grow, and for me as a parent to become more of a coach and less of a guide.
