Kenyon started scouts when he turned eight, just six weeks ago. I am so impressed with the scouting program. Kenyon's troop is organized and his leaders do a wonderful job. He is always so excited to go and participate...and he loves pack meetings. But, the thing I find most outstanding is this program is designed to teach young boys to respect and appreciate their mothers. I loved it when Kenyon pinned his Bobcat award on me. His troop leader asked him why he thought I get a pin. He quickly responded, "because she helps me". It was such a tender moment between the two of us. How do we continue to teach our boys to respect women and their roles as mothers? I am grateful that my husband respects his mother, me as a woman, wife & a mother, as well as other mothers and women in general. He is what I pray my boys will emulate. I know it is also essential that I respect my role as a mother and as a woman. Thank you Cub Scouts for being a part of our "village".
