After breakfast the girls got to go do the rock wall/zip line. They were both really excited, yet nervous. Who wouldnt be? 60 feet in the air and about to jump off? Hailey wized up the rock wall. Once to the vertical part, she wasnt so sure, but mastered it with a little cheering her on. She jumped off the edge with no fear. I was so proud, let me tell you.
Hannah, being so tiny, was told she had to wear the top and bottom harness. With her having sensory issues, she did not like this at all. She threw some mighty big fits, but in the end we convinced her that she would be upset if she left camp without giving the zip line a go. Omar even offered to go up with her and help her if needed. She finally decided to give it a go and put on the harnesses. She tried really hard, and with a little help made it to the top. Yah!!! Once up there the height realization hit. She did not want to go. She was crying. After a few minutes, I just told the guy to push her. And push her he did. She LOVED it!! I knew she would like the zip line much better than being lowered down. :) She wanted to go again. HA!! We can not wait until next year. We spent the rest of the morning hanging out with new friends. After lunch, we loaded the car and headed home :) What a weekend. All I can say is we LOVE CAMP FOR ALL!!!! MS Society - YOU ROCK!!!!!
