A good scout

You all already know I'm not into Halloween, mostly because of the origin of it. No tricks, just treats please. And, yes of course, Reece's treats were Reese's.It all seemed to come together when I looked at Darren's boy scout shirt hanging on Reece's wardrobe door. I put in there a few months ago after rifling through a box of stuff from Megamaw.

Personal, meaningful and nostalgic...just my style. I found a gold bandanna from Darren's fishing gear and he was set. I snapped a few on the stoop, in a similar stance as last year. I didn't expect how adorable he would look...And I also didn't realize it was going to give me a little peek into the future, or so I hope. Trustworthy, loyal, helpful, friendly, courteous, kind, obedient, cheerful, thrifty, brave, clean and reverent.Put all the adorableness and dexterity aside, I yearn for you to be those things much more. A good boy scout indeed.
