The "Camille: Grandchild #2" Story
It was an ordinary day. Carol and I were visiting with our daughter, Brynn, and our two grand daughters, Courtney and Camille, in Urbana, MD. Brynn's husband Dave was at a football camp with his team members for the weekend and we decided to travel down to visit and keep her company. Courtney is 8 years old and Camille is 6 years old and entering 1st grade this fall at Centerville Elementary. Camille is our middle grandchild. Our youngest, Caden, who is 5 years old, is the son of our son Derek and his wife Barb. Camille is the hustler in the Mencarini family. She will try anything and everything at least once. Already she has played in youth programs in soccer, lacrosse, baseball with the boys (not softball), swimming and now we find out that she is going to be a cheerleader starting this week. She already has been involved in dance for over 3 years and has given performances in Frederick, MD at the Weinberg Center for the Arts. Camille is a charmer and loves her family. She has a dog, Rocco and a cat, Ruby. She enjoys sharing stories on the phone with me and loves to play catch, read with me, and ride the ferris wheel with me. I recently asked her to share with me some information that I could use for this story on her. She described herself as pretty, smart with blond hair and brown eyes. She has many likes which include: pizza, swimming, playing baseball, the Sooperdooperlooper and the Comet at Hershey Park, her sister Courtney, her mom and dad, school, the computer, talking on the phone, texting, playing with her friend Madison, "Cougar" football games, presents, and the waterpark. Pretty impressive list for a young girl only 6 years old. And she is adorable with those big brown eyes. She never fails to make an impression on me when we get to see her. It was another extraordinary day in the life of an ordinary guy. PS - Photos of Camille from the top are: school photo from 2009-2010, with her mom a few years ago, giving a fashion statement, in her ballet costume, climbing the rock wall, and celebrating her 6th birthday. Luv you Camille, Tampah
