Joseph's Wishes

About once a day Joseph will say . . . ."mama, do you know what I wish?"

You just never know what is coming. Recently he wished that "fire would come out of my feet and I could fly like Astro Boy." But seriously, who wouldn't want that? That would be awesome.

This morning:

J: "mama, do you know what I wish?"
me: "no. What do you wish."
J: "I wish we had a compass."
me: "a compass?" (seriously. did I hear him right? where did he learn about a compass?)
J: "yes. a compass."
me: "and why do you wish we had a compass?"
J: "so we would know which direction we are going."

ok then. I guess he knows what a compass is. And his wish totally came true because Super Daddy reached into his bag of tricks in the garage and pulled out a compass from his Boy Scout days. Joseph doesn't get to play with it yet but he's thrilled to know we have one.
