The List

I've been transitioning into the stay-at-home mom role for just under two weeks. I think I have the handle of it. I have figured out the basics; wake time, walk time, lunch time, nap time. This pretty much makes up our days. I try to do something special with the kids on most days.

It is my nature to make a list for everything. I have a grocery list, projects to do around the house list, school work list, items we need to buy for the house list, book I want to read lists, and the list of lists goes on. I LOVE making lists!

One such list is titled "Summer Accomplishments" These are all the things we accomplished in the two weeks I have been home with the kids.
*Dragons baseball game
*Jumpy's in Troy
*organize the art cabinet
*backyard pool and sprinkler time
*story time at the library
*purging the house for Goodwill items (always ongoing)
*baking cookies
*several play dates

There is also a list of things we still want to do before school starts.
*Idle-Hour Ranch in Troy
*New Bremen pool
*Columbus zoo
*strawberry picking
*blueberry picking at Kringles
*Boonshoft Museum
*The Greene (to let the kids play in the water fountains)
*several art projects I've collected from Family Fun magazine

Any ideas to add to my list? Send them our way!
