I Miss Camping!

Another year has gone by, and another year that I didn't make it out to camp. I'm really surprised at how life seems to get in the way sometimes.

I hope to soon start planning a camping trip, which will be the first for my toddler. I believe she will thoroughly enjoy a night under the stars and days filled with exploring the wilderness. Hopefully our trip will be to Carolina Beach State Park, a place her brother and sister have many memories of. 

Camping with a toddler will be quite an adventure, that much is for sure. There may be more challenges, but there will most definitely be more rewards. Seeing everything through the eyes of a curious child seems to melt away the stress of the grown up world. 

For Christmas, I hope to give my daughter some goodies for her first camping trip. Her own lantern, a girly sleeping bag, and various tools to catch and examine bugs. I am so looking forward to this!
