Star, Fun, and Angel

Clark was awarded his Scout rank of Star this evening.  As usual,  I went up front to accept my mother's pin-- and was racked with guilt since I do nothing to help him earn his awards and yet I get a moment of honor. 
George is too much fun lately.  It seems that getting his hair cut has made his personality explode.  He is so expressive and mellow at the same time.  I am really enjoying the stage that he is in.  Where is the "pause" button on children.  If only.
Back to Clark.  He is consumed with a new project-- he's making a movie.  It is in the planning stages right now.  The script is written, the set is being built, special effects are being planned, casting is complete, and filming schedule is yet to be announced.  
He is serious.  And I'm having trouble keeping up with all the good ideas.  Not to mention every good idea comes with a good amount of mess.  Oh, the price of fostering creativity!

Are you missing anything at your house?  Have you misplaced an important item and can't find it anywhere?  Perhaps it's under the bed, between couch cushions, buried in the linen closet.  THIS little sweetie can find ANYTHING you've lost.  It's miraculous.  We don't know how she does it.  And she does it silently.  You need only voice that you are looking for something and then, like an angel, she miraculously appears holding the very thing you need.  
I think she actually IS an angel.

Congrats to Clark! So proud of him!

Love that pic of Georgie! Love his shirt! And orange is definitely a good color on him!

And yes I do think that Faith is a little angel!

Thanks for Monday! Had so much fun! And I am really enjoying the book a lot!

Oh, and Bets....you may not be directly involved with Clark's Scouting, but you definitely deserve recognition for doing EVERYTHING else that makes the Scouting possible!!
