A few days ago, my brother e-mailed me a document composed by his brother and sister-in-law's daughter, Sydney, who's 11 years old.
Her eclectic and all-encompassing list of "Things to do This Summer" reads as follows:
1.) Lemonade stand
2.) Plays
3.) Visit Zoo = Brookfield Zoo
4.) Have a picnic
5.) Camp in backyard
6.) Make homemade Ice-cream
7.) Funway
8.) BlackBerry farm/Peckfarm
9.) Make up a dance
10.) go to the pool
11.) Have a pillow fight
12.) go to park
13.) go to Luems
14.) sleepover
15.) movie theater
16.) make pizzas
17.) become ninjas
18.) sprinkler
19.) watergun fight
20.) Bake a cake/throw a party
21.)
Sydney is destined for greatness. The city of Sydney, Australia doesn't have a "To Do" list this ambitious.
I gotta go...I need some loftier goals.
We forget we thought all things were possible and worth trying when we were 11! Beautiful reminder. Thank you.
