It's Settled, Then

Today I went out for a walk with a good friend and her four-year-old daughter. Lindsay (the four-year-old) was very into 'making wishes.'

So she wished upon flowers, which we then tossed into the fountain.

Then we wished upon a stick, which we then planted in the ground.

Then we found a dandelion puffball and she closed her eyes tight, made a wish, and then blew the puffs... which promptly blew right into me.

My friend said, "Oh, all over Daphne! Does that mean that she gets to share your wish?"

Lindsay looks at me with huge blue eyes and a big smile and says, "You want to be a princess when you grow up, too?"

Hey, works for me!
