Sister's Shopping List

So my 8 year old sister was telling me today all the stuff that she wanted me to bring back from China. I told her that I couldn't remember everything she had said, and that she was better off making a list for me:

This is what she wrote (this is word for word, by the way, and she used this computer to type it)
  • 3 Chinese paintbrushes
  • Chinese paint (all 7 colors of the rainbow)
  • Chinese book on how to paint
  • Chinese painting paper
  • Chinese watch
  • 2 Chinese stamps
  • A ring (a flower on it)
  • A shirt with a mouse on it
  • 1 elephant (pink) (stuff animal)
  • 1 panda (stuff animal)
A shirt with a mouse on it? And I love how she clarifies that she wants the stuffed animal version of the elephant and panda, and not the real living creature. Oh, how I am going to miss home...

Hey, Mitchell: I have an 8-year-old myself, and I can just imagine she would write something just like that. I love how the book on how to paint comes after the brushes and paint!
