All about GIRL SCOUTS!

Leila- Daisy Troop 1st Grade
Our house is full of sales!  Our little Girl Scout has been selling cookies like crazy for her first year of girl scouts.  We really have no idea what to expect or where to set her goals, so we are just going with it- and having fun.  Pre-sales end tomorrow(but sales do continue through Feb), so if you need a few boxes of cookies, please call us!

I took her to the store yesterday to get her uniform and gave her a choice between earrings and the little beanie.  She chose the beanie-- which I am very happy about because it is so darn cute!  Leila becomes an "Official Girl Scout" on Wednesday at her Investiture Ceremony, which should be a lot of fun. 

Girl Scouts have been around for a very long time with the confidence and self-esteem of girls as the first priority.  Our girls are special.  They are capable of doing anything they choose.  They are delicate creatures and do require special handling so they are as aware of their specialness as we are.  As a parent of a girl the responsibility it great to raise her to understand her value, her worth, and how incredibly amazing she is.  I am glad we are involved in this organization.
