ATTENTION!!

Are you ever surprised at what your kids are 'in' to?

When sweet son was little he loved Marie from Aristocats. He loved her so much he carried a stuffed Marie cat around everywhere we went. The funny thing is he held her by the neck--it was narrow, and his hands fit around it perfectly.

As he got older Star Wars was the next cool thing. He had hundreds (it seems) of action figures, tiny laser guns, and ugly creatures from other planets.

Now he is even older, and the next 'in' thing is JCC, Junior Cadet Corps. He made the decision last spring he would join this group as it qualified for a P.E. credit...and boy he hated P.E. I was concerned he wouldn't enjoy the structure or the commitment, but it appears I was wrong. He was named Squad Leader last week.
