12-27-09


Today I attended my first court of honor to see an eagle badge awarded in Boy Scouts.

It was in honor of Trevor Wolff, a friend at church.

The row of people represent each rank of the 'Trail to Eagle' (scout, tenderfoot, 2nd class, 1st class, star, life, eagle) and they walked us through Trevor's progression, starting in second grade.

"Life is a competition, not with others but with ourselves.
We should seek each day to live stronger, better, truer lives;
Each day to master some weakness of yesterday;
Each day to repair a mistake;
Each day to surpass ourselves." - David B. Haight
