Swimming merit badge

Naoch returned from Scout camp this morning. He had a good time but was glad to be home.

He completed the requirements for 5 merit badges, including the swimming badge. I was really proud of him for doing this. I know many kids swim and dive with delight but Noach does not. He hates to get his face wet. But to earn this badge, he had to dive as well as swim distances that were challenging for him. He had to work for this badge and he did it. He overcame his own anxieties. I'm proud of him. PRM

My boy doesn't like to get his face wet, either, so I know what a feat that was. Yay for Noach!!!
