Wishes do come true

I spent alot of time over the last several months making wishes.  "I wish my pregnant daughter could be home so I could watch her grow".  "I wish I knew when the baby would come so I could be sure to be there".  "I wish these weeks would go fast so my daughter can bring the baby home to visit".  I wish it were the end of July so my daughter and granddaughter would be in my life every day". 
Currently it is the end of August and as I look down into the face of my three month old granddaughter and she smiles right back at me, I realize that my wishes have been coming true!  The days are here that I have longed for and I don't have to wish anymore!

I remember not so very long ago I would sit on the swing, drinking my morning coffee and wishing that I could spend my mornings holding my granddaughter and chatting with my son...and now I do!  I wished for Sunday dinners with the family all together and...now I have them (almost...still waiting on daughter #2's return).  I am happy that I am now at the point that I can wake up in the morning and get a special delivery...my little granddaughter arrives at 8am.  I get to feed her and play with her and make her smile each and every day.  Each day is a fresh start, waiting to see what she will do next.  Thank goodnesses that some wishes really do come true!
