Five Wishes

We had dinner at the mall last night with Beth's mom after church.  One of Emily's favorite things to do at the mall (after riding the carousel) is to through coins in the fountain and make wishes.  It was getting late and Peyton was getting cracking as we were walking by the fountain outside.  Mom Mom graciously gave her 5 pennies to through in for 5 quick wishers.  Here is what she wished for:

1.  For Mommy's voice to come back.  (Beth has had no voice since late Friday afternoon.)
2.  For Mommy's voice to never go away again.
3.  For her (Emily) to grow bigger and bigger.  (We often plead with her to stay small forever, but she tells us she can't.)
4.  For Peyton to grow bigger and bigger.

She paused after her 4th wish know the next would be her last.  Mom Mom whispered to her to wish we had lots of fun on our upcoming vacation.  Emily looked at her shook her head no.  I look of decision came across her face, she raised her coin in the air tossed it in the water and wished for:

5.  Cayden to get out of Aunt Mis's belly!
