Day 28

"Badges mean nothing in themselves, but they mark a certain achievement and they are a link between the rich and the poor. For when one girl sees a badge on a sister Scout's arm, if that girl has won the same badge, it at once awakens an interest and sympathy between them."
Juliette G. Low

Abby began Girl Scouting about 4 months ago. She has earned 13 badges so far, with 2 nearly finished. I'm running out of room to sew them onto her vest. There are girls who have been in Brownies for 2 years who don't have as many badges as Abby does. She will be moving up to Juniors in September, and will have opportunities to earn new and different badges. I hope she will be as gung ho about it then as well.

  1. It's cool that Abby likes Girl Scouts so much. Hopefully, she'll keep liking it as she gets older.
