Arrow of Light

Dylan received his Arrow of Light  Award at Pack Meeting in September.

Here he is putting a pin on his Mom's shirt.  Mom deserves

more than a pin for all the work she has done helping him

earn this award.  She has served with him for all three years of his 

 Cub Scout experience.   She started as his Wolf

Leader and is now the CubMaster.

Here he is with the awesome plaque and arrow that his mom

made for all five boys that got their award.

Look at all those badges and arrows on his shirt.

His leader told how vigilant Dylan is... and that it was no surprise

that he completed EVERYTHING he possibly could

and got every badge, pin, belt loop, etc that was possible

to earn.  Way to go, Dylan!

The look on his face in this picture is so typical of my

Dylan.  I am not sure what is going on in his head.... but he looks 
at others that way often.  The shadowbox frame on the table is his

award for getting EVERYTHING passed off.

And here he is walking across the bridge... to leave

Cub Scouts (and his Mom)

and join Boy Scouts where his Dad will be his new leader!

As part of the program, Dylan's leaders told about him and some of

his qualities.  As mentioned above, she told about his vigilance in

accomplishing all that was required of him.  She also said how

respectful he is.  In a world where no one is respectful anymore, I was 

very touched to hear this.  She said he is always respectful of the other boys, 

of the church, of his country and flag, and always shows respect to her and

her husband (his leaders).  Brought tears to Gma's eyes to have him praised

for something so important.  His dad told about how friendly and

obedient he is.  He truly is the most obedient kid I have ever known.

I love so many things about Dylan and I am glad that others

see how much good he is filled with.

What a special boy!
