My wish this holiday season

My wish....


I wish that every child could know their grandparents.
I wish that every child could grow up hearing old family tales and lullabies.
I wish that every child could make chair forts before watching movies.
I wish that every child could go fishing with their grandpa.
I wish that every child could turn their grandma's pots into musical instruments.
I wish that every child could know the safety of strong arms rocking them to sleep.  
I wish that every child knew the vivid color of burnt-orange dirt from a garden.
I wish that every child had a family that loved them no matter what. 

And above all, I wish that we would treasure our time together more for it is fleeting.
