Camp.

Well, I survived my first two days! Sydney and I actually got put in the Netzaberg CDC, so it's about a ten minute drive from our place. The CDC director, Mrs. Shelia, seems really great. She told Sydney and I that she's willing to work around our schedule to where we could take the early shift on Friday so we could get out of work around one or two in the afternoon. We'll definitely have to take advantage of this if she was serious!

The past two days have been spent doing observations. The two of us were required to sign a ton of paperwork, read through SOP's, and watch several videos on different aspects of child care. Once we completed that, they had us go into one of four classrooms: infant, toddlers, preschools, and pre-k. Spending four hours in each room, we helped out with the kids- feeding, changing, playing with, etc. 

Tomorrow we'll actually get to give our preference into which room we'd like to be placed in. After spending time in each of them, I think I'm leaning more toward infants or toddlers. The care is very similar to the residents I have at my job back home- change, feed, lay down to sleep, and so on. 

I guess we'll see what they say about it all tomorrow! 

I think tonight we might head over to the PX to get the shuttle schedule for the bus from Graf to Vilseck. We might also go eat at the dining hall- which supposedly is where all the soldiers eat at... in which case I'm not complaining at all.

Guten Morgen to everyone back at home!
