Wishful thinking


Eldest son told me today:  "I have something important to tell you."  
"What is it Buddy?"
"I know exactly what I want for my birthday."
 Sheesh!  What is it with these kids and the planning of birthdays still months away?
“I want a big zoo with lots of animals—that would be the perfect gift.”
I told him that zoos weren’t exactly for sale as birthday gifts--particularly not in our price range--but hey, if you’re gonna dream, dream big.
