Tiger to Wolf

Alex graduated from a Tiger Cub to a Wolf Cub a couple of weeks ago.  We are so proud of him.  Cub scouts has really helped him grow this year.  He has opened up more and he is being more outgoing.  He raises his hand to answer questions and really enjoys doing the activities for cub scouts.  One of my favorite parts of cub scouts is that he is learning what it takes to help people in the community.  This year he has helped with raking peoples yards, sang carols at nursing homes, helped distribute food donation bags and pick up and rang bells for the Salvation Army.  We love that he is getting these opportunities and it's awesome to talk with him about it to see how he felt about helping out in the community.  We couldn't be prouder of him.

Bill had surgery the day before Alex's graduation, so he wasn't able to attend.  It was hard not having him there and very emotional.  Luckily we were able to do a live video chat so dad could see Alex get his new book and badge.  Alex was also able to spend his Scout Bucks.  He chose some pretty cool items!  He loves scouts and dad loves doing scouts with him.
