Pack Meeting

I am not cut out for cub scouts. I'm not a den mother or cub master I'm just the mom of a cub scout so once a month I go to pack meeting with all of my kids. Maybe if Todd were home during the week he could take Tayson and I could stay home with the kids and only go when he was getting a big award. Then maybe I would like it.

But I try to be a supportive mom so I rush through dinner, leaving a full sink of dirty dishes (one of my very biggest pet peeves) so I can get to the church by 6:30. Last night Luke refused to go with me so I let him stay home alone until Timmy got home (it was quite a discussion we had before I finally agreed). The girls were simply crazy. They hate sitting on those hard chairs and I feel guilty letting them go play in the nursery because then someone else has to watch them. Luckily there were a few of my awesome young women there last night and they said they would rather be in there with kids then in pack meeting so for half the meeting I was kid free. Sophie kept going in and out of the rooms though and would walk right across the front where they were doing presentations (sorry to everyone who has pictures of her).

When we first got there I let Claire play with my phone to keep quiet and since she couldn't watch youtube I guess she pulled out the camera. Today when I looked at my phone I found 49 pictures.

and many many more. I know I need to have a better attitude about scouting or I'm going to have to do time as a den mother but it is just SO HARD for me.

P.S. did I really take Sophie out of the house looking like that? What is wrong with me????
