I laughed out loud when I read this one! What a cute idea, and such a neat memory! Thanks for sharing.
Your sister is a genius!
You know that is such a smart idea I'll bet there will be lots of people starting that now that you've spread the word! Your sister sounds like a great manager of people!
About the 1st of Nov. my father would tape up 4 sheets of foolscap inside 4 cupboard doors, one for each child. We were to itemize our requests. As typical of children we changed our minds frequently and would scribble out one we'd lost interest in and add new ones.
