Things That Violet Wishes For

Violet has been on a kick lately....a wish kick. She will randomly express her equally random wishes apropos of nothing. The result: Pure Bobcat Magic.
While making meatballs just now, prompting me to write these things down:
"Mom, I wish we were all elephants."
While getting ready to watch a movie:
"Mom, I wish there was a button right here on the wall that would turn our house into a giant bouncy house. With balls. And a slide that would be right here."
Getting into the tub:
"Mom, I wish our house was made of rainbows."
At Walmarts in the dairy aisle:
"I wish I had pink teeth."
In the same vein, she has wished for pink hair, a pink skateboard, pink feet, and on one memorable occasion, she wished my Kitchen Aid was pink.

Two recurring favorites: "I wish Grover could talk" and (sadly) "I wish we could all move in with daddy in his big house with the playground" (Ummmmmm...Daddy lives at his shop, and there is no playground, dear)

I will capture more of these, I know I have forgotten a couple...the point is this: I too wish for a house made of rainbows that would turn into a bouncy house. My hair IS pink, and I wish my Kitchen Aid was too. Violet is wise beyond her years. I'm not so sure about the elephant thing, though.

"I wish I had some pink goggles."
"Mama, I wish all the world was matching."
"I wish it was fishing Christmas." Me: "What????" Vi: "Fishing Christmas, so Santa would bring me a princess fishing pole."
