My aunt moved back from New York
My Aunt Jodi really wasn't around often when I was yonger. This is because she lived all the way in New York. Whether it was that she couldn't come home to celebrate the high holidays or my 5th birthday party, there was always something missing, her. Finally when I was in 6th grade she moved back home and that was important for me because I got to have that relationship with her that I've never had and now we're so close. -

CIT summer of camp
This summer at camp was very important to me. I was my last summer after 7 years of being a camper so it was a very emotional, happy and sad, time for myself, my cabin and all of the other CITS. This summer, we took an 11 day hiking trip to Isle Royale National Park that extremely changed all of our lives. This summer was the most important, meaningful, fun and life changing summer that I have had there. It was my best summer.
