Life Scout

Taylor earned his Life Scout rank advancement this month.

Taylor has enjoyed scouting ever since he started Cub Scouts at 8 years old and immediately started earning as many belt loops as he could.  He has slowed down a little bit as he's gotten older because he is so involved in school, athletics, and music...but he still enjoys scouting.  He has an awesome leader, Carter Andrews, who puts in a lot of time for our boys.

Taylor is a good 3 inches taller than me now, and just keeps on growing!  He is a great kid, and I'm so proud of all that he is doing, and how hard he works in his achievements.

 He's currently serving as the Deacon's Quorum President, and we have seen tremendous growth in him from that calling...we have seen him looking more outward, seeing the other boys in ways that he never did before, and trying to find ways to include them all and help them all to feel a part of the group. 

So from his Star Scout advancement to his Life Scout, we have seen tremendous maturity and growth, and we've been thankful for the learning opportunities that have come his way.  It's amazing what just one year can do in the life of a young man. 

We couldn't be happier to have such an amazing son.
