I seriously love going up and getting pinned by him with each major Cub Scout accomplishment. (I did not see that coming when I found out I was pregnant with a baby boy.) But I just glow with pride. :)
He has been very committed to Cub Scouts. David was always willing to rise to the occasion and meet the requirements. He was so happy and proud to receive his Arrow of Light.
Below is a picture of him with his buddy Jeff. They both received their Arrow of Light rank together. They have been best Cub Scout buddies. They are such good friends and quite a special pair of pals. David will miss Jeff so much. In the picture below they are with Tom Norman, one of their Webelos leaders.
HERE is a short clip of David crossing the bridge into Boy Scouts. I remember when he was but a wee Bobcat and his shirt was too big. He definitely grew into it. And now he's well on his way to being a Boy Scout. I love that kid. (And he loves Scouts...so I guess I love Scouts! Funny how that works.) So proud of him! He cannot wait to get started with Boy Scouts.
P.S. This was also the evening of the Blue and Gold Banquet. Greg was in charge, since he is the Cubmaster. He did a great job! There was lots of international food to sample, the place was decked out with festive decorations, and the boys gave presentations on different countries. Greg also put together a nice Arrow of Light ceremony. It has been fun for our family to have Greg serve as the Cubmaster. David isn't the only guy I'm super proud of! :)
