I Wish I May...

Tonight Josh had his first baseball practice of the season, and Jonathan came along with me. As often is the case, Jonathan becomes bored rather quickly just sitting and watching the practices (and even games, for that matter), but tonight, he managed to keep himself happy with the hundreds of dandelions that had gone to seed. Somewhere along the way, he learned that before you blow the seeds, you have to make a wish, so he was entertaining me and the other parents around with his interesting wish requests...he started out with "I wish I was a girl like Karlita" (one of the girls from church), and it deteriorated rather quickly. With each new flower that he brought to me, I cringed at the thought of what the next wish would be. Thankfully nothing was too embarrassing, and mostly it was about having lots of candy or going to the playground. At the perfect time, Aunt Marybeth came and he switched his attention to her, and all dignity was saved...this time.
