I know you must be very proud of your son as I am of mine, that is quite the accomplishment “I never forget a face—but in your case, I’ll be glad to make an exception.” —Groucho Marx

When I was a commander in my church's outpost, we had boys come just on Wednesday nights (the night of our service) and they'd go on outings with us and stuff. They didn't have to belong to the church to go.

It’s a shell of what it was. 12 year old is in Indian Guides. It’s ok. He’s very take-it-or-leave-it about that group. Not sure what I will do for his two little brothers to help them stay well rounded (and grounded) future leaders. Last edited by HuntnFly67; 01/15/24 06:06 AM.
