Last night, Shawn and I took Reilly on a stroll around the local park at dusk, something we try to do as often as Reilly is in the mood. As we rounded the lake, Reilly spotted a star in the darkening sky, and shouted, "Mommy, a star!"
Shawn responded by asking her, "And what do you say?"
To which Reilly replied, "ICE CREAM!"
To which I said, "Huh?"
Shawn explained that she had taught Reilly the whole "Star light, star bright, first star I see tonight..." deal, and that when they finished the poem and Reilly made her wish, Shawn would always ask Reilly what she wished for.
So, last night, she just skipped the poem and cut to the chase by shouting out her wish.
