Wishin' and hopin'...

a not-very-well-edited still from a short video of Kaylee's 7th birthday party

When you're seven, all of your wishes have the possibility of coming true. It's nice to hold on to those possibilities even when we're considerably beyond the age of seven.

I wish...

• that worry about the well-being of others, and the world at large, wasn't always at the forefront of my thoughts.

• that I were a more organized sort of person...I have my moments, but overall, I'm just a mess.

• that I loved to cook.

• that I could read all the books, faster. 

• that I was a better photographer.

• that my studio wasn't so frigid today. I'm itching to be making things. 

• that someone would do my bookkeeping for me...for free.

• that I was stronger, faster, less lazy, and more motivated toward being fit.

• that I was seven again...yeah, not really, but think of the possibilities!

What are you wishing for?
