<p>The Girl Scouts…My initial thoughts are of my own few years in the Scouts as a young girl. Selling cookies, earning badges, going to campouts, reading Bible stories around a camp fire, spending precious time with my mother who worked 3 jobs and yet still had time for every scouting event. Those memories are probably some of the most precious that I carry with me from my childhood.</p>

It is an organization that we trust, one that we turn our daughters to in complete faith that only good things will come of it. <span class="post-teaser-more">&nbsp;<a href="http://heartsunitedforlife.com/?p=550" title="Permanent Link: Girl Scouts of America" rel="bookmark">Read more...</a> <i>(3494 words, estimated 13:59  mins reading time)</i></span></p>
