Isn't it amazing how we can accomplish one thing in life, only to start planning and hoping for the next? The other day when I was teaching the grade fives and sixes I got them to write a list for me including 3 things they wanted to do or be when they grew up. I nearly cried when I read one little grade five boys list which included: I want to be a dad. This particular little boy is rather naughty and loud but I would say this one thought vouches for his home life. He wants to be a dad.
Bucket List for Jo
- watch my kids grow up
- sew a quilt-along
- start a coffee/fabric/quilting shop
- volunteer again in the hospital
- take a two or three week trip with our family driving through the United States
- take the boys to the east coast
- paint my kitchen cupboards
- spend a term as house-parents somewhere
Now that's a few things. I guess I'm not a sky-diver, bungee-jumping type of person. I have enough excitement in my life! :):)
Absolutely love your list and your thoughts!
