Helios bridged from Cub Scouts to Boy Scouts. He earned his Arrow of Light. He joined his brother's Boy Scout Troop. All in a few seconds.
Just moments before that, he was a second year Webelos.
And just seconds before that, he was a new Webelos.
And I swear it was just a moment before that, he was a new Bear Scout.
And it couldn't have been more than a minute before that, he was a brand new Wolf.
And I am fairly certain that only a few more minutes before that, he was a new Tiger.
He lit a candle, made a promise and transformed five years into minutes of memories.
Five years a Cub Scout.
Forever trustworthy, loyal, helpful, friendly, courteous, kind, obedient,
cheerful, thrifty, brave, clean and reverent.
So glad I got to come and celebrate with yall! Time sure does fly- can't believe I've been to 3 of these ceremonies.
