I get asked “Are you ready for summer?” a lot this time of year. People know I am responsible for delivering five weeks of the three ring circus we call Summer Together Family Camp. And they reasonably assume that I’ve been locked in my office all winter, getting my ducks in a row.

It was to be the perfect family photo. There we were after a good hike up to the top of Telegraph Peak outside of Yuma, AZ. I’m wearing my khaki "dad" cargo shorts; there’s Caleb with his shy smile, my wife, Evelyn, with her "mom" sunglasses, and then . . . what in the world is going on with TJ?
