I have wanted to get Evan involved in Cub Scouts since last year, but Jason tends to not like crowds very much and was a bit concerned when they told him he would have to be a den leader his first year out. So we waited. This year we decided to try again, and although he has to help with one lesson, there is someone else who has taken the reins, so Evan is working towards being a wolf cub. I am so excited. There really were no boys in my family, so sometimes I have trouble letting him be one. :) I thought with cub scouts he would have that special bonding with Jason, plus he would be able to have some real "boy" fun without me being terrified each time he tried something new that I might consider "living on the edge". I have included some pictures of his first pack meeting where he received his neckerchief. I am so proud of him. He is really into it and has already completed a bunch of things in his handbook. Way to go Evan!!!!

Very good blog people!
Congratulations. I too, come from a family of girls and recently wrote an article on my blog called:
New Scout Begins Planting Seeds of Knowledge for Life
I got some great comments from some former scouts. It is such a reward to watch these boys and their desire to become part of something bigger than themselves. It is an honor and a blessing!
Thanks for sharing your story!
