Watch out Betsy Ross!

Sewing on Girl Scout patches.
Bridget has been an official "Brownie" for the past 6 months and she has had such a blast hanging out with her friends while earning her patches. Fortunately for me most of the patches are iron on but there are still quit a few that need to be sewn on. Those patches were placed in an envelope waiting for a later date, never to be determined. I don't sew...well I didn't. While on a trip to Target we found a sewing kit in the dollar spot and saw that as a sign that I needed to fulfill my motherly duty. Bridget knew that I was scared I would mess up but she cheered me on the whole time reading to me from her Junie B. Jones Journal while I slaved away. When I was done she said she was so proud of me. She even wanted to take my picture. She thinks I should get a patch for being able to sew on patches. And I agree.
Next on the Girl Scout agenda?
Cookies.
(That's a whole other adventure.)
