Getting started with my brownie Troop

-
            I am so excited about getting my Brownie troop started Tuesday evenings from 6 to 7 pm.
The first meeting will be held on January 24 at the Library. I have 5 brownies. Tomorrow I will have them make name tags and something to take home as a keepsake. we will be working on the Girl Scout promise and the Girl Scout laws. I am going to make a poster with the Girl Scout Laws on it. The girls name tags will have the Girl Scout promise on it as well. Well will be sing a song that I learned when I was in Girl Scouts. It will be a lot of fun. And I know I myself will be learning along with the girls.
    You might wonder why I am being a Girl Scout leader, being in my 50s, and all my own girls grown. As all parents know raising children is hard work. And back than, felt a lot of times that I needed a break from my children. Plus I have to admit I just did not have the patience back than as I do now. Plus, with these girls I am only going to be with them for only an hour. This hour will give the parents a little respite from their 2nd and/or 3rd grade as well. Parents and children both need that on a weekly basis. Little girls need a safe place to get together with their friends without their parents neccessarily having to be their to supervise them.
