Only 3 wishes...hmmm

[TaraE.]

My first wish would have to be the reassurance that my daughter, Chloe, will grow up and have a full and wonderful life. I hope all her dreams come true. It's so scary being a mom. I feel almost paranoid sometimes, worrying that something might happen to her! BUT, I'm also scared that if I try to protect her too much, that nothing will happen to her...I can't shelter her, or she cannot grow. Can anyone out there give me some advice about how to NOT go insane? (She's only 22 months old, by the way...) My second wish would be that my mother never had to get so sick at such a young age. She deserved a better hand than she got dealt. She's still here, but she's had 7 strokes, though.  That has really taken her down. My third wish is for the house of our dreams.  A simple 4 bedroom, 2 bath, nice kitchen and living room.  We're working on that, though. I have a really great boyfriend who works very hard, both at his job and at home, to provide the best he can for his family. We've been together for 3 years now.

For years, I prayed to God every night for a man like him. Then, through our love, our daughter was born.  She is healthy and vibrant.  So many parents have to deal with watching their child be sick...I cannot imagine.  It seems that my three wishes have already been granted...
