Carter's Heroes

This month in Cub Scouts, the boys were working towards their Citizenship badges. One of the activities was to build a float to showcase their hero. The parents were given instructions to ask who the boy's hero was and to not offer any suggestions or help. When I asked Carter who his hero was, he thought about it briefly and then said that it was Grandpa and Grandma Clark. I asked him why and he said, "They are a good example and they teach me."

The floats were in a "parade" at the Pack meeting last night. Carter proudly pulled his grandparents. We are glad to have many "heroes" in our lives that teach our children things that they would otherwise not learn.
