Thanksgiving To Do List

In order to prepare for Thanksgiving tomorrow, one of the first things Mary did this morning was make a list of what she wanted to accomplish today.

Mary really should be the one writing about this, because she was nice and generous enough let me sleep in, and I wasn't there when the above list was created.

But as you can see, at some point the list was taken over by Sofi. Not only did she add the figures on the paper, but she also added lines to which Mary notated Sofi's agenda items that she wanted added to the list.

On Mary's to do list:

• Clear Hearth
• Put Up Nativity
• Put finish on floor
• Vacuum floors
• Clean Bathrooms
• Clear Ping Pong table
• Grocery shop (finish)
• Get flowers
• Pumpkin fluff
• Cut up pumpkins
• Vacuum basement & stairs
• (Mow Lawn)
• (Spread Compost)

On Sofi's to do list:

• Get a new kite
• Sofi kite & Isaac kite
• Go to the Museum
• Go to the Circus
• Eat Gingerbread man
• Pick up toys & dog
• Clean Sofi's room & vacuum
• Clean the dishwasher
• List the chores to do
• Write note to Santa
• Go to the zoo and see the Lions & Tigers & Monkeys
• Go to the Puppet Show
• Clean sofa
• Wipe TV

Mary and I accomplished everything on our list except for the last two items. Sofi actually accomplished about a third of her list...

• Eat Gingerbread man (which she worked on throughout the day)
  
• Pick up toys & dog (not sure where the dog part comes in, this may be referring to her new flash light which looks like a dog, but she did pick up her toys)
  
• Clean Sofi's room & vacuum (This may be more Mom than Sofi...)
  
• Clean the dishwasher (she put away the silverware, which has become her part of emptying the dishwasher everyday)
  
• List the chores to do (which she obviously accomplished right away simply by dictating this list to her mother)
  

Just before bedtime Sofi did point out however, in a tone of shock, that "We forgot to go to the zoo!"

In regards to her drawing, I was informed that this is a picture of her and Isaac. Isaac is on the left with a "spider kite" and she is on the right with a "kite box" with an "owl inside, with eyes looking out".
