I recently asked my kids to put together Christmas/Hanukkah lists. One of my preteen’s (now known as a “tween” which I thinks translates into “sassy youngin'”) said to me, “I already did my list. Come upstairs and watch the slide show.”
The what? Did you say slide show?!
And yes, as promised, she had created a PowerPoint slideshow presentation. This girl does not mess around. Slide one…
Okay, nice visuals. Very interfaith. Now let’s get to the substance…
Are all children born wanting a dog and then dedicated to begging for one FOREVER?!!! I’ll buy my daughter the bow. And maybe the opportunity of walking dogs at an animal shelter. What’s the next item?
Yeah, that’s not happening. But she should pray that she turns into Greg Brady and gets the groovy room in the attic.
I don’t think the dentist would approve. And that’s enough gum to power a nation. So umm… no.
YES, she can have a TV in her room! When she’s 18. And lives elsewhere.
A 3D printer! She can print her own TV!! Or maybe her own room!
Well, that we could maybe do.
Yeah, she’s not getting that. But very cool color.
And thus concludes, the holiday slide show.
I guess I now forward this PowerPoint presentation to the north pole. Hope they have wifi.
Omg, I love this! Did she put on a power suit for the presentation? Did she have a laser pointer? I would tell her that you need to see more statistics…more data that proves purple is a good color and that having a gigantic gum ball machine generates more positivity in the household. But, seriously, get her the 3D printer. She going to need some stronger technology for her next presentation, which I cannot wait to see.
socks and underwear it is!
This comment so made me laugh.
This makes me feel so much better about my boys’ lists. Thank you!
Your daughter has skills!
Got to admit, the puppy pic is cute.
How exactly does one pant a room? Cover the walls with pants? Go into the room with one’s mouth open and tongue sticking out and proceed to breathe heavily?
FABULOUS! LOVE, Mom
