Troop 11396

Lately, life has been SUPER BUSY, so I haven't had much time to write.  Today, though, I just had to take a few minutes to share the wonderful gift I was given this past weekend ...

Almost two years ago, I began an exciting journey as my daughter's Girl Scout troop leader.  Although it has been LOTS of work, it has been equally rewarding ... especially because I have such an amazing group of girls ...

Saturday night, we celebrated the end of another great year with a sleepover.  That night, my troop presented me with a check for $130 ...


This is no ordinary check ... this money is in support of me and Team Princess Warriors. Each of my Girl Scouts donated $13 of their hard earned money from this year's cookie sales ... for a total of $130 ...


I am so blessed to have these girls in my life ... and am thankful to have the opportunity to be a part of theirs ...

Here's to Troop 11396 ...

Those sweet girls will remember this for a lifetime. They have learned about thoughtfulness, giving and compassion from you. The true definition of a leader. That just might be the most valuable donation you have received. Love you. Mom

The ripples continue to flow further out....all of our experiences, good or bad, become warnings or lessons to those in our lives. Your experience has become a lifelong lesson of giving and support, your troop will carry throughout their lives. Amazing!
Love,
