Pinewood Racing!

This first year of Cub Scouts has been a bit of a challenge.  When Jason and I are juggling and struggling to meet the requirements we wonder if it's worth it.  And then comes something like the Pinewood Derby.  Jeremy had a great time working on his car with Jason.  He had very specific ideas about how his car should look.  It didn't matter that his car was too light and they had to glue weight on it.  He just enjoyed crouching by the track and watching his car race.  "Mom, I got 4th!" he beamed to me.  He didn't care that there were only 4 cars racing.  He just had fun being part of the action.  I love that about him! 

I'm realizing that many of my new things this year will be courtesy of my children.  I'm just fine with that.
