Flying Cars

Flying - adjective: floating, fluttering, waving, hanging, or moving freely in the air


     Today my boyfriend texted me and said he wants a flying car. I just sat there staring at my phone, laughing to myself, and trying to come up with a suitably witty response. After a few minutes and no creative thoughts I texted him back: I want a million dollars. Let's see who gets it first :)


     Of course being the competitive male that he is he said he was totally up for a race. I responded in kind with well you're on. But seriously why do you want a flying car. To which he answered -- who wouldn't want a flying car?


     Some days I wish I could be a little kid again. When my imagination made the world my playground. I was a princess presiding over her kingdom of stuffed animals, a pioneer girl on the prairie in my backyard or a schoolteacher lording my authority over my students, um I mean siblings. I guess these days I think it's silly to wish for the impossible. Somewhere along the way I forgot to hope for the extraordinary to happen in my life. 


Thank goodness for that silly boy I have in my life who reminds me, you are never to old to want a flying car.
