Last year, as a boy not yet receiving his First Communion, RR was eligible to earn and did receive his Light of Christ medal.
This year (and technically next year; although it can only be earned once) he was eligible to earn his Parvuli Dei emblem - which he did.
To get the medals the boys must complete a work-book and preform some charitable activities which better examine their faith. The books are then certified by the Pack Master and Parish Priest.
Anyhow; there we were at Mass this morning. RR was on his best behavior, was in the color guard, and sat with the other scouts.
TT on the other hand was a total handful. Usually when I take him to Mass I take him to the children's services with RR, but since RR wasn't attending the children's services we didn't either. For the record I don't think mine of Husband's backs will ever be the same again. That kid is getting heavy.
When Mass was over the boys were given their awards; and then TT decided to crash the party. Running up to the front of the Church yelling "Ray Ray".
Thankfully everyone in church is of good humor and they made a joke about it.
We celebrated afterwards with a trip to the pastry shop (not that TT deserved anything based on his behavior, but I think he's still a little young to understand that concept.)
RR had a strawberry-surprise TT had a cupcake. Me I had a bismark... I totally deserved something (and it was too early to start drinking).
