Big plans

Last weekend, the kids had big plans. The boy was bored and decided to resuscitate some old plans to build a platform up in one of our trees (our trees are too small for a full-on tree house). He appeared upstairs.

Me: Where are your sisters?
Boy: They're having a meeting.
Me: A meeting?
Boy, smirking: Yeah, they [and by they I'm sure I know which one he meant] decided they needed to have a meeting to make plans for building the tree fort.

They are so my daughters (a mother couldn't be more proud)! Here's the plan they made up:



Tree fort
paint and primer
blue
string
tape measure
wood
(plus diagram)

Apparently, one of the little photographers documented some of the building, although I don't think the project is actually finished.
