I posted a few weeks ago about our first girl scout meeting, but there wasn’t any news to share since Sydney hadn’t decided yet if she wanted to do it (I’d given her the choice between Girl Scouts and swimming lessons…a tough choice for her…). However, when she heard that her good friend Amelie was doing it, she was in wholeheartedly.
We had our first Daisy Troop meeting (isn’t that an ADORABLE name for a little, girly, kindergarten group of any sort?!?!) tonight and it was pretty fun. I met some super sweet moms and think I’ll probably like going just as much as her. However, the BIG NEWS…the earth-shattering, hopping-up-and-down worthy, pinch-me-I’m-(almost)-in-heaven NEWS…is that even the teeny-tiny, super cutie-pie Daisies will be selling the world famous Girl Scout cookies this year…Thin Mints and Carmel Yummies (don’t know the real name for that one!) here I…whoops! I mean, SHE…comes!!!
SOOOOOoooooo, if you have a special affinity for Miss Sydney (ie. related in ANY sort of way) well then you’d better reserve some Girl Scout Cookie lovin’ for her! Now I know that there will be a great many temptations be it at work, school, at your front door when some cutie-pie Brownie (that’s the only other troop ID I know!) comes a’knockin’…but you just remember this sweet little girl that you love so much and her poor Mom who somehow got suckered into being the co-Cookie Mom (yes…a TRUE title and a TRUE leadership position!) and put the breaks on going overboard on your ordering from anyone else! If you’re going to go overboard…please…overboard this way! Ok, ok, I’m kidding! (About the suckered part, not the overboard part. I mean, I WHOLEHEARTEDLY offered to help and am really hoping that there is a free Thin Mints cookie bonus for the Cookie Mom co-chair!)
Ok, really and truly, I am kidding. Order your Thin Mints from whomever you want. Seriously, I don’t mind. No, for real. I don’t mind at all. Believe me. It’s true. Do what you want. Just don’t expect me to share MY box!
Ok…now for real. I’m kidding. Lata.
[...] is about the fact that Kindergarten age Girl Scouts, Daisies, can sell cookies for the first time. She’s so excited she’s blogging about it now even though we don’t sell cookies unt…. Kudos to the troop committee for getting co-chairs for their cookie selling so far in advance. We [...]
