No longer a Cub, but a Boy...Scout that is

Now that Samuel is 11 he is no longer a Cub Scout, but now will be going into Boy Scouts. As one of his last projects as a Webelos he made this display for his awards and badges that he earned during Cub Scouts. Monica and I are proud of him for being dedicated as a Scout. We hope that his dedication will carry over into the Boy Scouts. We are a little worried as are Ward's Boy Scout program sucks. That means that Monica and I will need to work with him and give him every opportunity available to get his ranks and move toward his Eagle. He's on the right track with having earned his Arrow of Light.

I've already bought the leather for Ammon's. Once he becomes a Webelos we will work on his and then he will display his awards as well. Like everything else though, Ammon seems to get the short end of the stick when it comes to opportunities. He makes the best of it though. We are proud of all of our Children. They each are skilled in their own ways. They bring a lot of joy into our lives. We just can't wait to see how Gideon is when he is born.

Go Sam. You guys are great parents for encouraging and helping him with his badges. I think scouting is a great program for them to learn and grow in. That leather is a great idea to display the badges.
