Arrow of Light


Jack advanced (officially, since he has been going to Boy Scouts since May) from Cub Scouts to Boy Scouts tonight and received his Webelos badge, Faith in God religious square knot, and Arrow of Light award. The Cub scout Master said some very nice things about Jack (a positive attitude, always in uniform, a good boy, courteous and kind, always smiling, and that he would genuinely miss having him in cub scouts) before he gave him his Arrow of Light. Then he asked Jack what his favorite part of scouts was and Jack commented, "Coming into scouts as a wolf and now leaving". So I thought he might need some help remembering all the good times and memories, especially his first year as a Wolf with me as his den mom! :)

I can't wait for all the boy scout things with Joseph! Such handsome boys. Thank you for your comment. We were so sad to leave, but we are loving our new ward too. Thank goodness for things like blogs and facebook to keep up with friends. :) I am always glad to hear from you.

Congratulations Jack! It is wonderful to be involved in scouting. I was the Blazer leader when Grandpa was scoutmaster years ago. We will be there to see you when you get your Eagle!

Your children are all so beautiful. I love the picture of your little Morgan.

Congrats to your son on his Arrow of Light. I am the Primary President in our ward so I know what a wonderful accomplishment this is!

I look forward to staying connected!

Thanks,
Lori
