Things I swear I will force my children to do but probably won't

1. Wear a watch and use it to tell time.

2. Write Thank you notes (well, some success there).

3. Write postcards from our upcoming trips to Maine and Florida.

4. Become organized by using a vertical filing system for their school work. Question-must every card created by my kindergartner be filed away?

5. Use a stapler, 3 hole punch, and learn to knit.
 
6. Understand and use a dictionary. Not spell check. Not mom check. A real dictionary.

That will show them.
