"Really?" I asked. "Why?"
"Then I would take them [the seeds] out and eat them [the cookies], and then I would put them [the seeds] in the dirt and we'd have a cookie tree!"
Yes, please.
And speaking of wishes, here's a quote from the most recent book I read, Summer of the Monkeys by Wilson Rawls:
"... I do believe that any wish you make can come true if you help the wish. I don't think that the Lord meant for our lives to be so simple and easy that every time we wanted something, all we had to do was wish for it and we'd get it. I don't believe that at all. If that were true, there would be a lot of lazy people in this old world. No one would be working. Everyone would be wishing for what they needed or wanted."
"Papa," I asked, "how can you help a wish?"
"Oh, there are a lot of ways," Papa said. "Hard work, faith, patience, and determination. I think prayer and really believing in your wish can help more than anything else."
