Second day of Spring break here. Knitting’s going slowly, as you might expect when you have a little girl at home all day who wants to play make believe that her Barbie doll is exploring the Amazon.
Yesterday, Em and I went over to the Girl Scout store to pick up badges which the girls have earned, as they’re eager to gussy up their uniforms. While I was there, I looked at the other “fun patches” they had available. These are patches the girls get for doing activities that don’t qualify as badges, but which are still fun enough that they want to commemorate them. My girls love collecting things, so they’re all over anything that gets them a patch or a badge.
Specifically, I was looking to see what they had available that might be good for them to have to commemorate the visit of my friend the vet. She’s agreed to talk to the troop, and I’ve got a few fun ideas planned for that visit that I’m running past her. This will actually count toward both our “animals” try-it and our “careers” try-it, both of which we’ve half completed. But hey, Dr. Laura deserves a fun patch in her honor.
Looking around at all the other patches made me think about other people in my life I can use encourage to help the women of tomorrow.
Now whom I do I know who I can try to sucker in who might like to help…
Let me think…
Starts with I, ends with lliane…
Hmmm…
