Busy Beavers on Remembrance Sunday

My boy made me a very proud mommy on Sunday. As it was remembrance Sunday his beaver group was asked to do march through the town and attend a service outside the church. He is not the biggest lover of walking, especially in the November cold and to be honest with you he is Seven years old so his idea of the perfect Sunday includes Lego batman on the Nintendo Wi , building Lego and playing harry potter with his brother – not parading around the town and being quiet and patient listening to the vicar for an hour. But he did it and he did me proud. I asked him if he knew why we were there and what the poppies were for and he was quick to tell me about how we had to remember the soldiers and everything they did for us in the war. There was a very good turn out and it made me realise that these are the kind of things that will make him grow up to be a kind considerate boy who respects his elders and appreciates things.

If you are cruising and  it falls within remembrance Sunday then I know that P&;O , wherever their cruise ships may be in the world will hold a service onboard by the captain and have poppy’s onboard to make a donation.
