Proud Mama

Yes I am. And here's why...

Miles had a Court of Honor last night that I unfortunately was not able to attend due to sick kids but check out those merit badges! Sixteen of them! I am now the proud mom of a Life Scout! Is this a surprise to me? No. He's a go getter and has been since birth. And he's got some great scout leaders that have provided these experiences for him. If he achieves his goal, Miles will be an Eagle Scout before his next birthday. Have you ever met a 12 year old Eagle Scout. Get ready!!

Congratulations Miles. We're so proud of you. Did I mention that?

New Occupation

For all you pet owners out there, your search for inexpensive pet care is over! Lucy is now a practicing veterinarian. A while back she approached my friend Rocio about a check up for her dog Rocky....and she was only going to charge six cents! Of course Rocio jumped at the chance for this high quality pet care and Lucy wrote it on her calendar.

For weeks Lucy would ask me, "Mom! Is today the day of Rocky's appointment?" Well, we finally made it happen. Rocky was an excellent patient, even when Lucy pulled a thermometer out of her bag. Yikes! We told Lucy it must be an axillary thermometer. Phew! She bought it.

Emily took great notes as Lucy's assistant. Rocio paid the fee and gave each of them quite a tip. I think I may jump in on this too. Maybe Lucy needs a billing department. I could do that....
