Wishes

By Jessica

Mommy what is that time on the clock when you can wish for things?

Do you mean 11:11, Honey?

Do you sometimes wish for Hadley to be not in the clouds?

Yes Baby I do, all the time.

Today I will do my concert-show after dinner.

I can’t wait to see it. And Daddy and the boys and Sissy can watch too.

Okay but is that a long enough time for wishes? I like to have Hadley in my heart but some time I want her to be on my stage.

    I know she does wish for her in her heart, on her stage, and when holding her extra set of fairy wings…and I may be typing this all misspelled because I’m all teary and can’t really see <3
