Our Journey Has Started!

What a wonderful Valentine's Day! Spending time with the girls made my day so special. Thank you for sharing them with me.
We had a wonderful meeting learning more about why we are called Brownies, and jumping right into our Journey. If you get the chance to ask - have your daughter to tell you the story of the Brownies and how we came to be named Brownies. We will pull elements of the story into our very special Investiture ceremony on the 28th.
I introduced the Brownie Quest Journey to the girls and let them know we are looking for 3 keys in the Journey. The keys are designed to develop the leader within, and to understand how they can impact the world around them. We began looking at the individual - How are we alike? How are we different? Everyone participated and gave great input on all levels. It was really fun and they had no idea they were actually working.
I asked each girl to spend the next couple of weeks looking at their family. What particular element of the Girl Scout Law do you as a family exhibit the most? What qualities do the other members of your family have that go along with the law.
When we get back together in our regular setting on March 13th, we will discuss more about our families. We will talk about the ways our families live the various parts of the Law. In addition, we will talk about the Global Girl Scout family and Brownies around the world.
