The Battle of the Bucket Lists

I read through my owner's manual for the Big Blue Bus the other week and figured out how to remove all the seats in the minivan.  I alternated between suppressing my gag reflex at the amount of nasty goo and petrified candy found ground into the carpet and seat clamp thingies...and my marvel at how the van had become a time capsule of items lost from countless hours spent on the road (we can now play "Go Fish" with an almost complete deck of cards). 

One item I unearthed was an old "Bucket List" compiled by Eli.  Here goes:

1. go to disny world
2. fly in a arplane
3. be a soper star (I am guessing that's "super star")
4. go to disneyland (she's going bi-coastal, people!)
5. driveacar
6. be a prfesher (professor?)
7. see slena gomas in parson ("Selena Gomez in person"...kind of disturbing to see Selena Gomez "in parson")
8. be in a tv show
9. be in oterspase (outer space)
10. go to the beach
11. linn hot sire (or maybe "lirn hotsire?)
12. rid a Elfent (elephant)

Oh wait!  There's more: 

13. rid a dofen (dolphin)
14. go to evry stat in the usa

Hmmm...so much for her desire to cure cancer or find a solution to global conflict.  She is going for MUCH more shallow pursuits like meeting Disney stars and getting on TV.  She tells me that she can't decide if she wants to be a TV star, a pop star, or a gospel singer.  The choices, people!  I tell her all three will require that she be a role model and treat her sister well so she might as well start practicing now.  To which, she rolls her eyes and groans (I'm all about letting her keep her delusional bubbles while seizing the opportunity to exploit the moment towards good behavior!)

Here's my bucket list:

1.  Teach my daughter how to spell and write legibly. 

I do believe Eli will be crossing all the items off her bucket list before I can do the same!
