D's first rain gutter regatta at cub scouts was tonight. The boys made their boats at scouts last week. D brought his home and asked to paint it. Apparently he understood how I work because he took matters into his own hands and colored his boat himself . . . . .with washable markers.
D was also awarded his Wolf merit badge and 3 arrow points. In no small part, thanks to his grandmas for helping him while he was in Utah this summer. All year since he turned 8 I've thought, "We need to work on scouts but we've got time." Then, the night before he left for Utah, I was dozing off and jerked awake with a realization that we were out of time! He would be a bear in little over a month! Fortunately he had more done that I thought. And the rest he worked on with his grandmas. So he did it! This year I vow to do better at working on his scout stuff. Starting next month.

The girls got to make little pool noodle boats to race each other. They thought it was pretty fun too!
