I want to know. And, yes, I will ask!

When we started out as Daisy's, Sarah could barely talk....to shy. Now, six years later, she is strong, confident, & even humorous with her sales approach. I am a very proud momma. And, she loves to share what we do with donations....we give to the family abuse center, which is my favorite charity. For the girls, they get to vote. This year, they get a shopping spree at Sam moon, ice skating, and a trip to a theme reteraunt. They will have a blast!!! As assistant troop leader perk, I get to go as well. Eventually, Sarah will get to go to girl scout camps...but ten is too young....maybe 12.
