                               What She Brought Home From Girl Scouts Today
                                                     Author Unknown

                                      Perhaps when she came home today
                                   You asked, "What did you do in Scouts?"
                                     When she replied "Nothing but play."
                                          You were filled with dobuts!

                                      The weeks went by, you asked again
                                         She still had no craft to show.
                                            Then you began to wonder,
                                          Why didn't they glue or sew?

                                       For after all, it's dues each week,
                                           And driving here and there.
                                         The uniform, permission slips
                                            And cookie sale to share!

                               Ah...but she brought home much better things
                                        That no glue or craft could make
                                         If only to lend a helping hand
                                       When needed for someone's sake.

                                 It's the caring, sharing, learning, growing
                                         The Golden Rule is our thumb
                                For she'll be the one with the helping hand
                                          In the future years to come!

                               You see, although we think of Scouting now,
                                             It really isn't "today"!!
                                       It's the Scouting for tomorrow
                                    And to help them explore a new way.

                             So when she comes home the next time, please
                                    You can rest with a brand new start
                             For the craft that she's brought home today
                                            Is molded in her heart.
