Last week my co-worker challenged her children to write a "Top 25" list of things they would like to do before they die - a little morbid for a child perhaps but a good idea nonetheless.
She brought it to work and I thought it was so cute I decided to post it.
I love that kids are so unbothered and "matter of fact" about life.
Here's her "want to do" list:
- Be able to swim
- Get a $5,000000,0000,000 paycheck monthly(she seriously used that many zeroes)
- Go to Hawaii
- Own Art school/Museum
- Be in The Night In The Museum
- Be a Singer
- Be a Dancer
- Be an Artist
- Go on a $5,000000,0000,0000 shopping spree (this kid LOVES zeroes)
- Be a Fashion Designer
- I can sound like a seal (??)
- 25 carrot diamonds (she later made her look up carat)
- Be in a record book
- Own Mars (yes, the actual planet)
- Be like my big sister
- Save all the hurt things
- Go to a Day Spa
- Be a SuperModle (yet another word to look up)
- Meet Beyonce
- Go on tour with her
- Have a sleepover with her
- Have a big ice cream sundae
- Have a 10th Birthday party
- Get a puppy (not if her mother has anything to say about it)
- Go to College
- Have a good job
- Go on a curse (her mother DEFINITELY had to clarify this one, the poor baby meant CRUISE)
- Go camping
- Get Caesar back to his old self (I found out that they have a dog name Caesar that has somehow, recently become allergic to grass, air, concrete, the sun, etc. Poor thing can barely go piss without almost dying)
- Get better handwriting
- GO TO HEAVEN

At the risk of sounding lame, that was soooo cute! "Save all the hurt things"? Who says that? I teach kids all day and all I hear is "Brianne stop staring at me!". It was a refreshing read.
That's just adorable!
I like that she wants to be in heaven _before_ she dies.
