Clara's 6th Birthday List

Yes... here it is transcribed word for word from the list she handed me. I love it.

- watch
- backpack (with lunchbag)
- butterfly lamp
- rainbowy striped journal
- new flashlight bulbs (for star theater)
- new sunglasses
- A HUNDRED MINI PAGES, WITH ONLY DOT-TO-DOTS!
- MY OWN Laptop!
- Video game (for whole family)
- Kid Scrabble game
- 1,000-paged dictionary
- recorder or clarinet

So you think my obsession with online Scrabble has rubbed off a bit? And she is reaching if she thinks she'll get her very own laptop!! Isn't it enough that she has access to three computers in this house? The watch and the backpack (with attached lunchbag) are things that she wants because her friend at school, Catherine, has them... peer pressure starting already.

We are still thinking about what to do to celebrate the girl turning 6... but we are pretty sure it's going to be very low key (ie: very inexpensive). Some friends, some cake, and some games.

Awesome list! I especially love the MINI PAGES WITH ONLY DOT-TO-DOTS and flashlight bulbs (how practical!).
