tonite at dinner, our family played “3 wishes”. not much time to think things through — you just have to give your three wishes when it’s your turn.

i started:
– i’d like to be exceptionally good at anything i try (ooh, good one, huh?)
– i’d like to be able to fly (which includes having a protective barrier around me when i fly, and that anyone i’m touching can fly also — very superman like)
– i’d like to have a huge amount of money in a foundation and be able to give it away

liesl went next:
– perfect complexion and straight hair (we allowed her a bit of space on this, to consider it one wish)
– huge perfect wardrobe that would always have new clothes in it for the rest of my life, including make-up, accessories and jewelry
– able to read really fast

jeannie:
– a huge beautiful garden that she could tinker in, but would flourish and be perfect even if she didn’t tinker
– to be an artist (like, a painter)
– to not have to think about money (she clarified, this isn’t about a mansion on a hill; she’d just like to not have to think about money)

max wrapped it up:
– “a trillion plus a trillion plus a trillion (over and over) dollars”
– no more school
– to know everything in the world
