I have learned many new things through 4-H this year, from taking care of cats to showing cattle. Being responsible for my cats and my show heifer takes a lot of hard work but I have learned how important it is. At the beginning of the year I didn't really want to show a big heifer, lope my horse, go to 4-H camp for several days without my parents or give a demonstration in front of a group -- but with a little encouragement I did and I enjoyed doing each of those things.

I have also learned that the things I do through 4-H are fun. I have truly enjoyed participating in the many different activities and meeting new friends.

My favorite part of 4-H this year was hosting a delegate from Japan. It was a great experience for the whole family.

We made a lifetime friend.
