Bikes, FLL & scouts, and art

Owen rode his bike to school for the first time today! He did a great job, and was really proud when he was parking it at the school’s bike rack.

Fun Fair

Michael and I went to Owen’s school’s Fun Fair. Owen and his dad were helping with some of the games there on behalf of the Cub Scouts. Although Owen acted as though it was very tough work (he kept telling me how many minutes he had left on his shift) he seemed quite proud to […]

Cub scouts

Owen had his second pack meeting tonight, and just loved it. When we got home he kept practicing the Cub Scout Promise to me until he had it perfect. After he ‘got it’ he told me to say my old Girl Scout pledge, and I’d found I couldn’t say it right because I kept saying […]
