Pack Meeting

Last night was Ethan's first pack meeting since joining scouts. We started the night off with "mom I need you to go to Billings and buy my badges or else I can't earn any others" I then let him know that he can't bowl me over, I'm not dumb, and I've been through this before. He is talking about the Central Wyoming patch and his troop numbers that go on the shoulder. He really thought that he was not going to get any badges without them. I also let him know that I can't just run to Billings and get them like it was only going to take me 10 min. to do so. It was almost 6:00 and he was having a fit about needing to be there at 6:10. So we load up and go to the Church Gym and no one is in sight! Go figure! We then had an indepth discussion of what a prepared scout should be. They should listen, be prepared and always help out. After guilting my other children into going we left again at 6:30. Low and behold there were two other cars in front of the the gym. We went in and were the only ones there. It was suppose to start at 6:30 but no one else payed attention to the time either. After being there for an hour and playing some fun games Breya, Jacob, and Kendra were glad they went. I was surprised and happy that they joined in on the fun.
