She stole my wish!

Picture the scene:

Bill leaves early for work. I am actually on time with everyone getting ready. We are five minutes from walking out the door. I tell Vallerie to was her face and hands while I am getting Victoria to brush her hair.

Vallerie runs over with a eyelash with joy and admiration in her eyes. She has a wish and she owns something in this little life. She extends her hand in almost slow motion.

Victoria see this beloved wish and snatches it ninja est right off the tip of her finger! Made a wish and then promptly dropped the eyelash.

This sets in motion a 15 mins old fashion crying jag! Vic was under the impression you have a game with this eyelash to see who really owns it. I say if something falls off your own body you can keep it!

Vallerie cried through putting her shoes, sweater, brushing hair... on and on. I tried to get another eye lash from MY own eye but no luck. On and on ... she stole my wish, she stole my wish. I had enough!

Victoria pipes in... well you can have your wish back because mind didn't come true! My wish was for you to not cry anymore!

Well that just set it off again!!! finally she calmed somewhat and I said... wish on that star (we were in the car 20min later, already dropped Vic off at day care..BTW LATE for work!). She said...I don't see a star, Fine! WISH on the MOON!!!!

Final words from Vallerie...But I don't know what to wish for...

I give up!
