Today #2SS became an Eagle Scout and I was recognised with a 'mom' pin. I was/am so proud of him. He overcame ADHD and remains unmmedicated, survived a near faatal bicycle/car accident 6 years ago that had him in a coma for 4 days, is the Great Procrastinator and drives us crazy .... but he made it and we (DH and I) are extremely proud of him.

And his brother missed out seeing his little brother do so well. I hope he turns his life aorund. And it was one in the eye for all the people who worshipped the ground #1SS walked on and just rolled their eyes at the mention of #2SS. The tables are turned. #1SS remians in a half way house and #2SS has got the top Scouting award possible.
