This working weekend.

Hi guys!  Just an update from your favourite Doty girl. ;)

Camp Bighorn's work weekend is May 27th-30th, and then only eleven days 'till we ship off for the summer!  Our whole family is heading up for the work party- and they thought three Dotys was going to be an adventure!  I think it will be great for us all to work together, for a number of aspects.  One, so our parents will have a closer look into what we will be doing all summer, reassuring them of safety, etc. (especially a certain mother in the group...;)  Two, being DeL's first summer, I think she will appreciate the opportunity to "get her feet wet" (perhaps more literally than theoretically!) before heading into the summer.  I know she is going to thrive, and I cannot wait to see her realize that. :)  Apologies for the bigsisterness.  And three, I know it will be nice for all three of us to be able to return to Bighorn.  Hopefully, it will feel like going home; instead of leaving home.

One thing you can pray for me over the summer is that I would not fall into my bad habit of of making plans for myself, because I am subconsciously worried God is not.  I was preparing myself for the first day of staff training the other day, and caught myself planning out word for word what I would say to a friend whom I haven't seen since last summer!  I know planning can be good, the ant storing up for winter and being called "wise" (Proverbs 6:6); but I see it leaving me with a tendency to shut out God and His plans.  Whether it is rooted in fear, pride, or confusion is not clear to me.  I ask that you would pray that I would succeed in the area of trust, subject myself to His will, and go with His flow.  Thanks to you all, and love!

In Christ,
