David is five and I needed to get my act together on structure for his day. With the latest addition to our family, improv has become a bit more difficult, so his dad and I sat down and made a list of daily activities for David. What this means is that I will have these items ready each day for him and he will move through his daily activities as time permits. Please note:
This is NOT a schedule or a strict list, but rather a tool to help me help him have a consistent sense of direction. In case you are interested, here is the first pass at a draft for this list:
