~Three Wishes~

Ahhh to have a lucky magic lamp to rub. Wouldn't that just be the best thing ever? 

When I was younger I used to say if I had 3 wishes my first wish would be to have more wishes!! Wasn't I clever?

Isabelle has been on a, watching the princess movies, kick. She's never really seen them, cause, let's be honest...they are scary! Most disney movies consist of someone dying, and a super scary witch or bad guy. Isabelle just turned 5 and seems to be able to handle the "it's only a movie, don't be scared" line. 

The latest disney movie she enjoyed was Aladdin. She knows it as Jasmine because of the princess factor, of course. After she was finished it, we had a little chat. She was very intrigued by the whole "magic lamp, genie in a bottle, 3 wishes" part of the show. 

I asked her what she would wish for if she got to have 3 magic wishes.

She answered immediately:

1. To have 2 REAL horses of my own

2. To see a real princess Castle

...at this point I'm thinking these are great. Fairly standard wishes for a 5 year old girl....I was even thinking I could probably make the second one come true, as we are planning a trip to Hong Kong's Disney world sometime soon....then she drops #3 on me, right out of left field..

3. I wish we had a submarine

What the heck??! That was totally random and made me laugh. I honestly didn't know she even know the word, never mind wanting one. However our little conversation lead me to think "What would I wish for?" Providing of course, that wishing for more wishes is not allowed.

There are many things that came to mind some of the top few are:

~ Continued health, we'll into the years ahead. Being able to be a strong mother and grandmother.

~ Health and safety for my kids, I worry about the big, bad world out there. Probably more than I should but it terrifies me to send my babies out into it.

~ Hair, long luscious hair. I have thin strings that take forever to grow and have always wished I had full curly bouncy locks. (like both my sisters do..grrrr) I know this one is vain...but it's true. 

So now I would like to pass the question on.......

What would your 3 wishes be?
