Leprechaun Wishes

My little Princess said to me at lunch yesterday that she almost caught the Leprechaun at school.

She then asked "do you know what happens if you catch a Leprechaun?"

"You get slimmed with green goo?" I asked in reply.

"No! You get 3 wishes and you get to keep his gold!" she said with a huge smile on her face.

I just had to ask what her 3 wishes would be if she would have caught the Leprechaun.

"Well, since my last pet fish died I would want a new pet fish." OK. (?)

"Then I really want some real high heel shoes." (So funny!)

"And my last wish would be fore some High School Musical flip flops." I knew this kid likes flip flops, but she can't keep shoes on her feet to save her life.

Then I had to ask Dude what his 3 wishes would be.

"Ummm, I think my first wish would be to have my own cat." "But we already have a cat." I said. "I know but I want my own cat that is [Princess'] cat." (Silly kid!)

"Then I really want to go to Disneyland." (Me too buddy! Me too!)

"And for you last wish?" I asked him. "To have really big chickens!"

"We already have chickens." "Yes, but those are loud chickens!" (Sorry Dude, I can barely handle two chickens let alone any more. And you are right Mini was being extra loud.)

As for my 3 wishes?

I think I would have to say that my first wish would be to have a really great garden this year.

Second, would have to be able to go on a vacation. I work for an airline and get to fly for free. Can you believe that I have worked there almost a year and I haven't flown anywhere yet?!?!

Third, to find a way that I am not always tired. I would love to have the energy to do what I need to accomplish in a day.

And if I was given a fourth wish I would ask if I could really keep his gold.
