Dear Lexie,

I know you need my lists for some order in your life (joking of course). But I don't want you to leave without a list from me. This way it may look like you're going to the grocery store doing some shopping's for me instead of flying off to another country.

I know you're doing this for me and it should be the other way around. Either way I hope you have fun like I did the last time I was there. It has been almost twenty years since I've been there with your mother. The summer after you were born and you sucked all the fun out of us, (joking again) so that holiday is the last memory of fun that I have.

I know you and I know how responsible you are, but I do hope you have some fun over there. That is why I made you a list, so that maybe I don't have to feel so guilty about you leaving because you want to pay my bills. Don't forget about me, I'll miss you Lexie!

Love, daddy

So here we go:

1. Cut your hair at the Greek barber. But don't go bald like I did, biggest mistake ever.
2. Ride a Ferris wheel. Stop being a baby.
3. Take a boat trip and a road trip - both winners in Greece.
4. Go skinny dipping. I probably shouldn't tell my daughter to do this, but believe me, you'll never feel so free.
5. Stargaze.
6. Go to a water park. Again, how old are you? Still afraid of a water slide?
7. Do something I'd never do.
8. But most of all have FUN!
