“Listen, Ainsley. It sounds different now that Madie isn’t in the car. It’s . . . quiet.” says Ben to his sister Ainsley as we drive out of camp where we left an upset Madie behind for an entire week of camp.
I am sure that Madie’s tears were just for my benefit and she’s settled into camp nicely. Either way . . . Ben and Ainsley enjoyed each other the entire trip home without any arguments! Sounds like the beginning of a great week.
The Puddles 
I am so glad Madie is with Bethany. Bethany wasn’t scared once she realized she would have her friends around. It looks like they are having fun. I still just don’t know what to do with all of this QUIET in the house.
