Great tests/gifts
G is at scout camp this week. It's raining a ton and of course his CI failed.
We had hoped he would have he N7 upgrade by now which is more water resistant, but no. I drove out to give him an air dry box I bought at CVS. It didn't work for Wednesday but it worked today.
When I dropped off the dry box he was happily playing gaga ball. People like to imagine he reads lips when his CI is broken. G is good at reading expressions and asking questions. If people ask him a question when he can't hear, he'll guess. I'm grateful for sign language.
His phone also ran out of charge and P had deliberately sent him without a charger. But G got another boy to lend him a charger. So at least he is learning what to do when you need something.
I sent him this quote this morning.
"Tests are a gift. And great tests are a great gift. To fail a test is a misfortune. But to refuse the test is to refuse the gift, and something worse, more irrevocable, than misfortune."

G has a lot of tests in his life and he does his best which is pretty great.
