First Cub Scout Meeting

We took Sasha to his first Cub Scout meeting. I predict that he'll be able to say the Motto and Promise by the time he's three. Tuesday is a combined pack meeting for three of our primarily hispanic packs. We love these packs. We feel that the hispanic culture has so much to offer. They are extremely family-oriented. We have learned a lot by working with these three packs.

Here's Sasha in his hat and 'bug shirt'. He loves playing chase. He runs, I chase. And, he laughs

and laughs. It's really quite good. I was looking for a way to boost by aerobic exercise.

The sisters of two of the scouts, Itzl and Angela, have been looking forward to Sasha's arrival ever since our first trip in March. They have asked if they can watch him during the meetings which is wonderful. He still is a bit nervous around strangers but I'm sure he'll feel more comfortable with them after a few more meetings.

There is a darling three year old girl named Ashley that Sasha really had his eye on. He does have a thing for older women but Ashley is the first that is within 10 years of his own age. Ah, young love.
