A few days ago I brought Laura to the eye clinic for her routine eye exam. Again, she passed with 20/20 vision. Afterwards she told me that she was bummed out that she did not need glasses. I asked her why and she told me that the three things that she most wants are
*to wear glasses
*to have a broken bone
*and to have freckles
Smiling, but trying to feel a bit of sympathy for her too, I told her not to despair…for someday she may be able to wear glasses…and someday she may get a broken bone…but, unfortunately, she’ll probably never have freckles. To which she replied, (with typical girlhood drama), "Yeah, but freckles are what I wanted the very most!"
