At the pack meeting, which had a jungle theme, Zachary got his awards and a painted face.
Then we went to Baskin Robbins (Zach's choice) for ice cream to celebrate. Since it was just the two of us, I tried to engage Zach in conversation. I wanted to hear about school and football and scouts and his life. Zach offered one-word answers and a rosy view of the world, which hasn't really been our reality at home. Despite my confusion, I was glad for a happy evening with a happy boy.
Love you, Zach.

how wonderful!!! He looks like one happy scout!!! Congradulations Zach!
Good for Zach!
I don't claim to be a great Scout mom either, but somehow, with wonderful scout leaders, they earn everything they need to, to advance.
Congratulations! He looks thrilled. I'm almost positive I would be a negligent-at-best Scout mom, but seeing as it's my calling now I might have to attempt to put forth a respectable showing. I'm sure you're doing great.
Good job, both of you!
Good job, both of you!
A month before his birthday...that's definitely above the bar! Nice work, Zach. And since I know that it's 95% parent encouragement and persistence, NICE work, Mom!
I'm proud of you both for achieving this award. Zach looks happy. It's also very fun to go on a date.
You must be proud! I am the Wolf Den Leader in my ward...I am really learning to LOVE Scouts! We have pack meeting tonight, too...
Dang, I'm lonesome for all of you!!
