    Does Evie come camping or does she stay home in her comfy bed?

    Evie goes to Haiti and lives in a tent for a year. She may thing that is enough camping for now.

    Children don’t get introduced like that. Only serial killers and whack jobs get introduced with a first, middle and last name. Oh, well, at least it’s “Owen” and and not Wayne

    When I was young I wanted another birthday. When I was older it didn’t manner. I got to a point I didn’t count my birthdays. Now I forget when they are.
