Well On His Way

Tonight I attended a court of honor

where our Mr. T received the rank of Life.

The only things left he has to do are
earn his remaining 5 merit badges at summer camp,
and one Eagle Project.

He has been self-motivating in Scouts
and that is why he is so close to reaching his goal of
Eagle.

And thanks to a wonderful example of a far away friend,
I had T sew on his own merit badges to his sash,
and maybe for that he can earned a sewing merit badge?

I don't know, but we are sure PROUD of this young man.

Times of Trouble

Lately my life has been a little hard.
Things are happening that are out of my control.
It is stressful, financially challenging and depressing.

But then I see something inspiring like this My New Life,
a video about blogger Stephanie Nielson.




Hers was one of the first blogs I ever read
and couldn't stop reading.
She is inspiring.
And to see her trials makes mine seem so miniscule.
She reminds me that I need to trust more and come closer to
my Father in Heaven.
