Today after she went to school, John found an index card near her Spongebob breakfast bowl with a checklist on it, written in orange marker: breakfast, lunch, dinner, bed. BED was by far the biggest word. Each word had a circle to the left of it. The circle beside "breakfast" had a check mark in it.

I wonder what fantastic things would happen today if we made up a holiday for someone–and told them with a handmade card.

Let's all try it.
