dad has always been the master of 'to do' lists in this family. if it's not written down, it doesn't get done - at least not by dad. since i arrived mom has started writing lists too. i guess that's probably because she's trying to set a good example for me. some of mom's stuff i approve of: she has good intentions to get me at least one passport - a nice blue canadian one to match my eyes, and a british red one that'll match my face after i've been screaming for ten hours on an aeroplane. two passports, two birth certificates - it kind of makes sense .....less than two weeks until christmas though, which means less than two weeks until mom can cross off 'buy christmas cards' from her list.
i'm a bit worried that neither of them has 'buy Joel christmas presents' on their list. if it were to appear on both lists then i'd be doing really well. i overheard that dad's planning on going out and buying an X-Box later "for the youth group" so he says. i know it's for me really. i need to practise my snowboarding tricks ready for when i'm big enough to go out on the mountain.
