Proud of My Daughter
I want to share with all of you this list my nine-year-old daughter Maggie made. Mark and I have been asking the kids if there's anything they'd like to learn or work on this summer. Phoenix, our six-year-old, said he'd like to learn more Spanish. Luke, our five-year-old, wants to learn to tie his shoes. Maggie had a whole list of things; and here it is.
How to do laundry.
How to iron.
How to research and write book reports.
How to write beautifully in cursive.
How to cook more intricate meals.
How to swim better; and more importantly how to dive head-first.
Voice lessons.
More piano lessons.
Learn to properly babysit.
Have a bank account.
Learn to save money, even in hard, tempting times.
Work on, check, and fix all mistakes in my book. (She's writing a book)
Learn how to hold back my temper even when the boys are getting on my nerves.
Practice handwriting since mine is so horrible.
Work on my cursive!!!
These are things I'd like review just before school starts.
Cooking
States and capitals
Multiplication and division
Spanish
And my cursive!!!
Y'all, my list for the summer doesn't hold a candle to Maggie's. I learn so much from her!
