I am the mother of 5 (count them!) Eagle Scouts!
I have helped with numerous merit badges,
taught first aide to at least 100 scouts,
and driven to East Fork of the Bear
so many times that I don't need a map!
But since Gwen turned 12 in October
this is the first time I have done Personal Progress.
(Okay I served in Young Womens a few years ago,
but the program was completely different!)
This week Gwen and I decided to work
on some of her "projects."
Gwen is making a quilt for her bedroom.
She picked out the fabric,
designed the quilt
and with a little help from me
(mostly just pinning) she made her quilt.
It is being quilted right now, but here is it part way done.
Our other adventure was to go to the Springville Art Museum
then to the Provo Temple to do Baptisms for the Dead,
It has been fun working with Gwen,
but it is definitely different than scouting!

If we flipped your family and turned it inside out and removed a few children, it would be my family! I feel so lost about scouts and only have to do it once, whereas by the time my girls get to personal progress I will know the progream inside and out. Sure glad I get to work with gwen in YW. I'm telling you she has done more in pp in 9 months than other girls do in years! And i agree that our stake flost should have won a prize. When I watched the parade I got expected to see one of those banners preceeding it!
