My girls are both Sparks and we've just learned "Fire's Burning". I was
singing the song with them today and when we got to the part "and be merry",
my oldest said "I never sing that part because I don't want to be married"
lol.
Thought it was cute and had to share.

My Funny Story:
When a Guide transfered into our unit I asked
her if she had her Guiding records....She looked
puzzled and said, "Records, I've heard of those
before, are they like CD's?"
My Brown Owl daughter had a girl last week that proudly announced that
she can read, so she memorized the Brownie promise all by her self. And
proceeded to tell my daughter that she promised.. "To be true to myself
my God slash faith asterisk and Canada". Her daddy told her how to say
the marks! Too cute.

Annette, hearing you tell the story of your Sparks reminds me of many, many
years ago when my daughter jonined Brownies. Back then Brownies were 6, 7,
and 8. She actually joined when she was 5 1/2 because I worked with the
Guides on the other side of the gym and the Brownie leader said if she was
going to be there every week anyway, she might as well be with the girls
closer to her age. She was so proud and soon after wore her uniform to
school for Thinking Day. When asked by her teacher what Thinking day was she
proudly told them it was Lord & Lady Bathing Towel's birthday! Her teacher
later told me that she proudly showed them all the parts of the uniform.
When the teacher said and " and what is your Brownie purse used for?" she
said " Oh that's my Brownie Pouch....it's where I put my Brownie taxes."
Now she's 18 years old but I will never forget the chuckle we had.
