Last night Cardon got his Webelos badge and his Arrow of Light. Since no one in BJ's family did scouting and neither of my brothers did scouting--we are new to this. I called the scout master the evening before the ceremony to ask if there was anything we needed to do and she said "YES!" Apparantly the Arrow of Light is a big deal and Cardon was supposed to be given a special arrow with a letter as well as a special board to mount it on--from his parents. This was news to me. I hate those moments as a parent-- when something important was supposed to be taken care of and we were going to blow it. So, BJ and I got busy. He got the wood ready and then I got it finished the next day--just in time to give it to him. Now that I understand the importance of the Arrow of Light I want to tell Cardon how proud I am of him. It took a lot of work to get this and he perservered and did it. Way to go Cardon!!!!!!
We have to take 2 of every shot because Cardon is in the stage where he has to make a funny face in every photo. So we compromise--1 good smiley shot, and then 1 funny face. I just had to put this one in there to document this stage in his life. Plus, it makes me laugh when I look at BJ.
