Eleven-month-old Emma just started daycare, and before she started, her parents were required to fill out a basic questionnaire listing her strengths, interests and goals. Luckily, dad was in charge of filling it out, because his responses are laugh-out-loud funny.
Here are Emma’s goals:
- unplug all power cords
- overcome fear of water over my head
- open every drawer everywhere
- world peace (like all other future beauty contestants)
- to walk, eventually
- a Ph.D. in theoretical physical cosmology
- inflict sleep deprivation on my parents until such time as they acquiesce to my every whim
She also has quite the list of interests that includes:
- food as art/clothing
- long yells on the beach
- firmly gripping dog’s hair
- exploring parents’ noses with fingers
- dawn, every single morning, without fail
With goals and interests like these as well as strengths like “obfuscation” and “rapid digestion,” it’s no wonder she has so many friends. There’s “unicorns and pixies,” “the wind,” and, of course “something on that wall over there.”
Daycare looks like it’s gonna be a breeze for little Emma.
