A Wish......

I have this primitive star pillow on my couch....it has little rusty bells and stitched in the middle is the word 'Believe'

Emma Sage loves this pillow....she has since she was a baby.

Tonight, after we walked home from my in-laws [I still can't believe my father-in-law has passed on] Emma Sage came in and sat on the couch and waited for me to tidy up before we headed upstairs to tackle her latest collection of books from the library [two huge bags full today].

I'm in the bathroom and hear her chatting away...first singing a song from the Jona's brothers. Then she is jingling the star pillow and I hear her say

"Star-light, star-bright...first star I see tonight...I wish I may, I wish I might, make a wish tonight"

then she proceeds to say......"Ummmmmm....let me think"

Then she goes "I wish I had hair like Hannah Montana.......pants like Hannah Montana....shoes like Hannah Montana...Thank you!!!"

I started cracking up.

Little does she know, I can take her to Targets or Walmart and her little wish could be full-filled 10xs over...she could even get Hannah Montana undies!!!!!!

This child just fills my heart with such joy.

isn't it amazing to know that YOU have the power to fill her heart with joy - not that you don't already do it many times over every day? and that she returns the favor to you ten-fold?

E adors the Jonas brothers, Hannah Montana, and the Suite Life of Zach and Cody. In fact, pretty much anything on Disney.

I think you need to hope on over to Target and get her some HM panties mama...what are you waiting for? :)
