Last week, BK and I spent a little time making a Summer Bucket List on the kitchen chalkboard. We talked a little about fun things we might like to do and I helped her come up with some ideas.
When we were finished, we had the following conversation:
Braylen: “Are we going to put some things on there for you and dad.”
Me: “No, we’ll just do these fun things with you.”
Braylen: “Well, you should put some things for grown ups to do on the list.”
Me: “Like what?”
Braylen: “Go to Wal-Mart, eat grilled chicken”
Be very jealous my friends, it’s a glamorous life we live, according to Braylen.
Amber Wallace says
that is quite hilarious what Braylen thinks of the grown up list.
Jennifer says

hahah I love that! My son would probably still say “eat snacks and play cars” (which is on his daily bucket list) for the grown ups!
Jennifer says
Haha! Smart boy ๐

You are such a good mom!!! I love hearing people talk about doing these type of lists with their kids. I look forward to J getting old enough, so we could have a conversation and do one, too!
Jennifer says
It’s so fun! And he’ll be making lists with you and planning summer before you know it!
Heidi says
haha, that’s hilarious! Jim saw the bucket list Molly and I made a few weeks ago, and he wanted to know if he could add stuff on there. Molly told him to make his own list!
Jennifer says
Haha! Love it! Sounds like something we would hear around here ๐
Sara says

Jennifer says
