I can’t believe that I’m going to say that things seem to have gotten more hectic since MaM has started back to school, but they sort of have. Not really anything stress inducing, but the boy and I have no problem filling our days.
Tonight we signed MaM up for Daisy Scouts. She was a little disappointed cookies weren’t involved in the Service unit meeting, because really, that’s all she knows of Girl Scouts. I can’t wait for her to learn more……..the songs, the field trips, the camping, the friendship, I get wistful just thinking about it. Maybe I haven’t mentioned it before, but I in scouts from second grade on through til 12th grade. YES, 12th grade! I earned my Silver Award, but never did find a Gold Award project I could stick with long enough to finish it (it’s the equivalent of the Eagle in Boy Scouts, and even more elusive). I was a resident camp enthusiast, and became a camp counselor the minute I graduated from high school.
I don’t know if MaM will be as gung-ho about it as I was, but I do so hope she’ll enjoy it!
How thrilling! I hope that she likes it! Marissa now says that she doesn’t want to do Daisies… Ack! How can she NOT do Daisies? How would she NOT like it? Torn between not wanting to push her and, well, wanting to push her. . . And I have to decide by tonight. Arrgh. I hope that MaM loves it and gets the whole tour, so to speak!
I was actually kicked out of Brownies. Ha! I have always wondered what it would have been like if I’d gone all the way through.

Your face is so familiar- I have to figure this out! Any involvement with 3M (Aearo)? United Methodist Church? Local community theatre? Ummmm….
