Every Wednesday night, I have the responsibility, no privilege, of having about 7 10 year olds run a muck in my house, and entertain my two boys. If you're still wondering why I have this honor, I must simply say that, Yes, I am the Webelos leader.
Last night for our activity, besides playing dodgeball, was to make puppets and then give a puppet show. One forgets how creative 10 year olds can be, especially with their improv skits. I'll simply say, they are always entertaining.
Here are my puppets - A germ, and some kind of fire beast
After our activity, the boys play rugby, football, dodgeball, or soccer in the backyard. Triton and Bronze love when the scouts are over. And for me, its like free babysitting! Triton makes it a point to give each one of them a hug and exclaim, "come in!" as soon as the doorbell rings.
Maybe it was being inadvertently tackled during the football game, or maybe it was having to sit and allow me to take a picture of his cupcake mug - either way, Triton wasn't too happy - obviously.

Last night we had chocolate cupcakes. Really, is there anything better than a cupcake?
I'm 99% sure Bronze agrees with me.
