I was able to take my daughter on her first hunting trip over the thanksgiving weekend and she absolutely loved it. Like all kids, needs to learn to be quiet, keep her hands down and be patient, but she did get $1 for being the first one to see a deer! I was super proud of her all weekend, never complained, always wanted to help and wasn't afraid of the outhouse that her mom refuses to use so she just stays home! After some lessons on her Great Grandfather's BB gun and her Grandfather's bolt action Marlin 22, she got to shoot big brother's 10/22. And connected on a milk jug a few times. She also hit the steel swingers a few times. But most of all, she was a great help and had a great attitude all weekend. On her second time through the gate, she got out and helped big brother, 100% her idea.

I miss my kids being that little.
Sometimes it's hard being me! But somebody has to do it.

Good job Dad!
I think sometimes as grown-ups (most of us) we forget how things look through the eyes of a child and forget what a BIG deal it is to get to do something like that.
I can guarantee you it will be a memory that will stay with her for a lifetime.
The small amount of effort it takes for we as parents....to make possible the outings and other fun events for our children ...is more than paid back in full when we see their enjoyment and know what it means to them.
