As most of you know we are a homeschooling family. We belong to a group of other homeschoolers that organizes different field trip and leads many different groups. One of these groups is called Keepers at Home. I like to think of it as a Christian based girl scouts.The girls range in age from Kindergarten to 12th grade. They meet once a month to work on a craft or skill that can be useful to them as they get older. Also throughout the year they have a handbook they can work out of to earn pins. They can earn pins for such things as different homemaking skills,learning bible verses and many others for craft skills. The end of the year banquet was last week when the girls received their pins for their hard work throughout the year. Bailey earned pins for memorizing Psalm 100, candle making,Insects, Scrapbooking and she also received a pin for commitment(attending the meetings) and her outstanding achievement pin which she received for completing the skills she said she would complete at the beginning of the year. I am so proud of my sweet little girl who will be 7 in just weeks. She is such a joy in my life!!

That sounds like so much fun! I wonder how she knew so much about candle making? :) 117 days to go (in case you lost count...)
