Colin worked diligently at the kitchen table this morning to make me a grocery list. He's just learning to read and write, and so sometimes it takes a little work to decipher what everything says, but for the most part I can get it.

As I read through the items on the list, I was impressed - it's all stuff I would actually buy. With one big exception (or would that be two?):
Yep, that indeed
does say "TITS." As for what it's
supposed to say, it remains a mystery - because Colin couldn't remember what he was trying to spell.
I can't help but think that someone exactly like him wrote this grocery list that I found on the floor of Hy-Vee a while ago:
