Organise our household jobs into one shared family to-do list.

All the jobs on my mind: [brain dump]
Who's in the family: [names and ages]
What each person can do: [rough]
Deadlines: [any dates]

Before you start, ask me up to 3 short questions if anything important is missing. Wait for my answers.

Then:
1. One list grouped by person, with a day for each job.
2. Age-right jobs for kids.
3. Jobs nobody wants, shared fairly.
4. A short, friendly family message to introduce it.
5. A quick weekly check-in to update the list.
