Thinking buy thoughts, Gail!
I listened to your Writing Action Scenes class from National a few years ago and I wanted to let you know it helped me so much with POV in general. THANKS!

Grandaddy was still in his chair. I think he was a little tired that day. He’s not in any of the pictures of the oath…

Yes, you have a lot of Eagle relatives. B’s working on her silver award…

Before I looked at the larger version of the picture, I thought that was Granddaddy. So where’s granddaddy?

Okay, your Dad’s youngest brother is there. If you will look at the face squeezed between the nephew’s upraised arm and his dad’s upraised arm–that’s him. He’s kinda hard to see, but that’s him. His arm is behind P’s to the left. It’s the guy with the black sleeve that’s not kin.

And my middle child wasn’t there. He couldn’t get off work. But his sons were there–and the Tiger Cub held his hand up in the scout sign the whole time the Eagles were doing their oath. Totally cute. He also sat on my lap for much of the ceremony. He’s getting BIG!

The other nephew didn’t stand with the family group. He’s out of the picture on the right. (I do have another pic with him in it, but since he’s the only one in it I know…) He was there with a cast on his left hand and a brace on his right from his snowboarding accident, because his classes started later.
