Last month Jacob earned his Arrow of Light in his last pack meeting of the Cub Scout organization. He turned 11 yesterday and is now an official Boy Scout. During the pack meeting, his Webelos den did a pretty funny skit. The theme was When I Grow Up. They had a time machine and so each boy went in and came out dressed as what they were going to be when they grew up...a teacher, a soccer player, a doctor, a construction worker, etc. Jacob was the last to go in and came out in an adult Cub Scout shirt and said in a whiny voice, "Ohhhhh, I'm going to be a Cubmaster!" Cute stuff. It hit me at the meeting that this wasn't only Jacob's last pack meeting, but mine as well...no more skits, no more silly cheers.

Tracy I can totally relate to this!! I, too, was feeling sad about my 11 year olds last cub meeting. The saddest part was the fact that not only was my Garrett leaving cubs but so was my hubby (that has been cubmaster for the last 8 years). You are right, no more skits, silly cheers, songs, etc. It's so weird. I like your blog. You are awesome to do one. I thought I'd take a peak :-) Heidi
