I wish for a life that is full of all the people and things my heart holds dear-my amazing family, my dear friends, a slew of sweet and spunky dogs, honest music, heartfelt literature, well-made movies, milk chocolate, sweet white wine, mac and cheese, dark beer, lazy weekends, busy and productive week days, jpeg files featuring beautiful faces and places, spiral bound journals filled with thoughts and memories, enough joy to spread around, a little bit of pain to keep things in perspective, a wedding day we’ll never forget and at least one healthy, happy child to live my life for. I wish for all those things. And most importantly, I wish for the strength to not become consumed by the things others think I should want. That is what I wish for. An honest life of following my heart; it speaks so clearly.
February 13th, 2010 at 10:41 am
Your website is my happy place. I feel peace as I look at your images.
My wish is that I will be true to myself. Allow myself to dream, and reach for the stars. They are in reach, if I would only have the courage to stretch my hand out.
February 13th, 2010 at 10:41 am
I wish for balance and time…
February 13th, 2010 at 10:43 am
i wish…that i could open my heart more and love without fear. for the most part i think i do, but life can really kick it out of you. i guess my wish is to love more like a child loves…with raw honesty, emotion, and passion. a childlike heart in a wiser adult body. i don’t know if that is possible, but that would be delightful…and that would be my wish.
February 13th, 2010 at 10:52 am
I’m closed my eyes and wished for peace and quietness in my life. d
February 13th, 2010 at 11:05 am
I wish that my 3 month old nephew would be healthy, 100%. He does not have it as bad as other sick babies, and he has one the Best personalities in the world; but I feel for my sister. I just want her to have one week without having to go to the emergency room, and her baby to be done with his last surgery (couple more weeks! fingers crossed). He is just a sweetheart and it breaks my heart that he has to deal with so much already. I know that my whole family will spoil him to pieces and after these first difficult 3 months of his life, he deserves all the spoiling he can get.
February 13th, 2010 at 11:05 am
I wish that I could be a writer, an animal activist, and a wedding planner, all at once. I wish for balance between all of my passions, and the ability to explore them all. I wish for personal, universal, and spiritual health. I wish for a life full of travel and unforgettable, beautiful experiences. I wish for no regrets, lazy Sundays, lots of laughs and mashed potatoes. : ) And I wish to always be surrounded those that I love- or at very least, to carry them with me.
February 13th, 2010 at 11:05 am
I wish for relentless humility, so that I may ALWAYS GIVE MORE THAN I RECEIVE.
February 13th, 2010 at 11:06 am
I wish that I would be able to get over my fear and self doubt and follow my heart and do what I love…someday…soon. <3
February 13th, 2010 at 11:14 am
I wish we could have a world where we respect and love each other no matter of the color of our skin, religious beliefs, gender, sexual orientation… Where the only thing we are… is human.
February 13th, 2010 at 11:16 am
I wish for the strength to put away stress, the courage to accept love, and the poise for wild spontaneity.
February 13th, 2010 at 11:16 am
I wish I had as much confidence in myself as others have in me … and that I would stop waiting for the perfect moment to arrive and realize that very moment is the one I’m in.
February 13th, 2010 at 11:34 am
Ah, I love that you asked us to do this… when I closed my eyes, I wished I could dig my toes in the sand someplace warm, with my baby girl in my arms and my love at my side… letting go of some of the day-to-day craziness and my type-A, overachiever self to just be…
February 13th, 2010 at 11:42 am
I wish for grace to love my husband more than myself, peace to love those around us with overwhelming acceptance and joy to be fulfilled where I am with what I have.
February 13th, 2010 at 11:43 am
I wish more than anything for my father to be here to hold my baby girl… I wish I could travel the world…. I wish for an adventure… I wish I didn’t have fear… I wish I could speak Italian so I could speak to my family… I wish I could spend an entire day in a beautiful field playing pretend… I wish for peace…
:::Thank you for opening my eyes today:::
February 13th, 2010 at 11:45 am
Can I wish for more wishes?
February 13th, 2010 at 11:53 am
I wish I may, I wish I might, I wish my special needs nephew to live a full, long life.
February 13th, 2010 at 11:57 am

February 13th, 2010 at 12:05 pm
I wish for strength to get up in the morning, happiness for life and a smile on my face instead of the anxiety I feel inside…
February 13th, 2010 at 12:08 pm
I wish that I can learn to open up and truly enjoy every moment God has given me… I wish that I will learn to never take a single moment for granted, and take advantage of every opportunity that comes my way.. I wish that everything I am working so hard to achieve will work out, and that I will have the strength to go after everything I want in life, even when it’s the most difficult road.
February 13th, 2010 at 12:13 pm
I live a passionate life. I find love in almost everything I do. I find peace and emotion in dance, stories and amazement in photography, release and comfort in writing, laughter and joy in cooking, and clarity in surfing. My wish is to be able to apply all those passions to my life while using my greatest passion (functions of the human body) to study the human body, learn how to work with the sick, prevent illness, and comfort those in need. I continue to pursue my wish and hope that one day – it will benefit others and inspire them to make their own wishes come true.
Thank you for this beautiful opportunity to share my wish with you.
February 13th, 2010 at 12:24 pm
I wish that I remembered more often to stop and enjoy the little things in life, like chocolate, grass between my toes, and a warm breeze across my face. I wish for more orange sunsets, pink sunrises, and dazzling crystal blue skies. I wish for more cuddle time with my fiance, more laughter with my friends, and more stories from my grandmother. And most of all, I wish for joy in everyone’s lives, for all have worked so hard and deserve so much. L’Chaim
February 13th, 2010 at 12:26 pm
My greatest wish is to have the self confidence to be a wedding photographer. To have the creativity to create with the camera and light what I see inside my mind. The courage to post images without fear. And to accept the compliments I do receive. Thank you so much for doing this giveaway! It would be so lovely to have a crown like the ones you have in your images.
February 13th, 2010 at 12:37 pm
I wish a sunny day tommorow…
February 13th, 2010 at 12:45 pm

February 13th, 2010 at 1:19 pm
Our wish list:
For God to give us humility in our words, the sight to see nothing but beauty in his creation and more importantly wake up each day feeling inspired and become the inspiration to those who need it…
For everyone who has commented and those that haven’t, to wake up with a wish box and see their wishes bloom each day…
To be as generous and as inspiring as you are….
February 13th, 2010 at 2:54 pm
I wish to be able to see all the beauty and joy in my life and let go of the constant worries that don’t mean anything. I wish to live a life where I have enough confidence in myself to follow my passions and make a difference in someone’s life.
Thank you for this giveaway!
February 13th, 2010 at 3:02 pm
I close my eyes…I have pictures of my baby inside me grows healthy, not making me too sick…I picture we have the perfect result on all tests we need to do…I picture the excitement of touching, kicking, and listening we are going to experience together during our journey together…I picture we have a smooth, and natural birth this summer…I picture our baby is adorable, is healthy…I picture our baby has charming personality…
…and one day, I picture myself make it to your workshop
February 13th, 2010 at 3:16 pm
I wish for God’s blessings to whomever who wishes deeply, faithfully and purely.
February 13th, 2010 at 3:28 pm
my wish is to use my camera to put onto paper images of the beauty i see in love, life, laughter, and tears.
my desire is to produce from my violin the notes of my heart….to heal the lingering scar of love-not-meant-to-be, and allow my inner-loveliness to shine through.
but most of all….my wish is to leave some beautiful in this world — no matter how small.
February 13th, 2010 at 3:34 pm
I wish for a day filled with laughter, French pastries and flowers from the market.
February 13th, 2010 at 3:53 pm
I wish for all my loved ones to be safe and well.
I wish I could take photos as beautiful as yours, too!
February 13th, 2010 at 4:05 pm

February 13th, 2010 at 4:07 pm
I wish for peace on earth and in my heart. I wish for the strength to love more than I already do. I wish for wonderful things for all of my friends as well as the strength in all of us to learn and grow from the hardships that are just as important in life.
On the professional note, I wish for the chance to make my living behind the camera.
February 13th, 2010 at 4:22 pm
I wish to find the person that I will share the rest of my life with sometime soon, that loves my Kailin just an 1/8 of how much I love her since my love for her is endless.
February 13th, 2010 at 4:35 pm
I wish for the confidence to look inside myself and express who I am thru my lens each and every time I hold it to my face. I wish to express creativity thru my own soul and no one elses. I wish for every one to appreciate a perfect image because they’re in it and they are who they are.
February 13th, 2010 at 4:46 pm
I wish to be free from anything that holds me back from being all of who I am.
February 13th, 2010 at 5:06 pm
I wish for strength to find my ‘over the rainbow’… hope everyone else’s dreams come true also.
February 13th, 2010 at 5:23 pm
I wish for longlasting contentedness and strength to make it through bad times. A simple life is all I need.
February 13th, 2010 at 5:30 pm
I wish for a baby.
February 13th, 2010 at 5:34 pm
I wish for hope. I think hoping for things and wishing for things keeps you going.
Like, I wish to live in New York.
I wish my best friend didn’t have to move away.
I wish that I could inspire someone to do something great with their life.
I wish that true happiness was easy to find.
And I wish that I’d stop having weird dreams!!
February 13th, 2010 at 5:47 pm
I wish to find someone to love. Someone with whom I can spend my life and make a family. Someone with whom I can share my innermost self. I wish to find a wonderful man who can make this already happy girl that much happier!
February 13th, 2010 at 6:13 pm
I wish to find tiny victories each time I put a hand in my pocket; each time I blink open my eyes. I wish to always root for tiny victories.
February 13th, 2010 at 6:45 pm
I wish I would take more time to actually do all of the things swimming around in my head.
February 13th, 2010 at 6:57 pm
I wish for true happiness. To not feel jealousy toward others and focus on all of the little joys in my own life. That way, everything else I wish for… a family of my own, visits with old friends, and a successful career will happen in due time.
February 13th, 2010 at 7:01 pm
I wish for the love of my life to come to me soon.
February 13th, 2010 at 7:05 pm
I wish . . . for so many things in my heart of hearts. But being a woman and a step-mother I feel selfish ever saying out loud the things I wish for and the things I want in my life. Thank you for allowing me to open my eyes for just a moment today.
I wish for the strength to be true to myself and my dreams. I wish for the strength to become the woman I know I am destined to be. I wish for a child of my very own someday with all my heart. I wish that when I leave this world I will have done some good and made the world a little prettier. Above all I wish for the hope of humanity.
Oh, and I wish for calorie free chocolate croissants
February 13th, 2010 at 7:52 pm
I wish that I could see everything as clearly and as simply as God sees it. To be at peace with life’s constant flow of changes, embrace them, and create love with them.
February 13th, 2010 at 7:54 pm
After 4 years of struggling with infertility, I am finally 3 months pregnant.
I wish with all my heart that my child will grow up with a passionate love of the arts in some form because it has truly enriched my life and opened my mind to so many people, places, and things.
February 13th, 2010 at 7:55 pm
My wish is for my friend Jes who is pregnant for the first time. I wish for her to have a happy, cuddly, beautiful, healthy baby! I’m spending my Valentine’s weekend with her since her husband is away, and this is the only thing I wish for on this special heartfelt day!
February 13th, 2010 at 9:14 pm
I wish for an eternal supply of kisses.
February 13th, 2010 at 9:16 pm
I have two specific wishes because I could not choose between the two. 1, I wish my lovely 4 month old daughter would stop being so distacted by the world and return to breastfeeding. I’ve tried everything and I so love breastfeeding. 2, I wish the horrible person that stole my wedding ring two months ago would give it back. These are my two wishes.
February 13th, 2010 at 9:16 pm
Today my dying father called me and said he wanted to die. I wish for my dad find the love, peace, and forgiveness of Christ who wants to usher him Home.
February 13th, 2010 at 9:20 pm
i wish for peace of mind, and the ability to make a difference in the lives of others.
February 13th, 2010 at 9:33 pm
I wish for certainty in my life.
February 13th, 2010 at 10:08 pm
When i close my eyes i wish that i had more time to do nothing. To sit with my sweetheart on a quilt, on the grass. To only have time for love and growing. I wish for a baby with strawberry hair. For time to go just a tiny bit slower and for life to be slightly more simple. To live somewhere in time and live life to the fullest i absoluetly can. To not distract my life with wasteful things like jealousy and bitterness. To build self-confidence. To travel. To always be reminded of my blessings. To kiss my lover-boy like it’s the last kiss i’ll ever give him. To be more spiritual and humble. To visit paris! I wish to learn many things. But most of all i wish for happiness for my loved ones. I often forget about me because i worry about them, it’s really what i wish for.
February 13th, 2010 at 10:25 pm
I wish to be awakened.
February 13th, 2010 at 11:00 pm
I wish to relish the present moment.
To allow whatever turmoil or joy it may bring to flow through me. To experience it, soak it in, let it go. To remain open, joyous, involved, loving, feeling, curious, fascinated, creative, connected, and authentic.
I wish to follow passions, inspirations, adventure.
I wish to truly live. And I wish to be there with and for others as they do the same.
I love your website and all you share. And I loved being inspired by what everyone else has shared.
Thank you, and enjoy your day celebrating love in all its splendourous forms!
February 14th, 2010 at 12:09 am
I wish that my wedding (in 2 weeks!) will be perfect simply because of the person I am marrying and not only because of the details of the day.
February 14th, 2010 at 12:11 am
my only wish…the same wish I’ve had for 6 years is become a mother.
February 14th, 2010 at 12:21 am
I wish for faith to jump into an unclear future. I wish I could find a way to show the inspiration I feel everyday in my work. I wish I wasn’t afraid to call myself a photographer. I wish I felt the feelings I see so easily captured in others lens. I wish to be more.
February 14th, 2010 at 12:45 am
i wish i may, i wish i might….
February 14th, 2010 at 12:57 am
I wish this distance between me and the love of my life would diminish so we wouldn’t have to spend another birthday, anniversary, valentine’s day or Christmas without each other…ever again.
February 14th, 2010 at 2:16 am
When I first saw your wedding pictures and the roll of “wishes” I thought it was a wonderful gesture. My daughters are getting married shortly and there are alot of loving people who helped me raise them into the wonderful, caring people they are today. They are both slowly helping to change this world for the better. My wish has already been granted.
February 14th, 2010 at 2:23 am
I wish that I can always see the best in everything and everyone; that I may learn to see the beauty of everything that happens and be grateful for it. I wish that I can learn to smile through the storms and stand upright. I wish that I may find my way, a way to make real my dreams and passions without bowing my head to reality. And finally, I wish that I may bring joy to all those who know me, that I may bring a smile to their faces during their times of need.
February 14th, 2010 at 2:35 am
I wish to see life through my sons’ eyes! To take a moment and to remember what it was like when play was work and every new day felt fresh! To enjoy the little things like picking flowers from the yard, watching a fire truck go by, or intently staring at the sky. As much as parents teach children, I believe children teach their parents.
And can I wish to win the wish box? I would absolutely love a box of such special treasures!
February 14th, 2010 at 2:35 am
I am thankful for having the man at my side who loves me how I am, whom I adore and I am grateful that we marry this year. I wish we will enjoy life together forever and ever and keep on travelling together (like we call it). I would love to receive this handmade “wish” crown of Roses Petite Maison – I would put it on whenever life is a turmoil and needs a stop with closed eyes & I would hand it on to the children of our family to show them the same. I wish I’d win the roll of wish tickets, they would inspire me to invent a lot of presents and surprises for my loved ones. I wish to win chocolate – my godchild adores chocolate and it would make him SOOOOOOO happy. I would be honored to receive a signed original photograph of you, because I am looking for something precious to decorate our home. And I wish for the amazing vintage box, that I would give to my future husband on the morning after our wedding, to keep all our wishes & treats in…
Thank you for sharing!
February 14th, 2010 at 2:46 am
I wish to give as I have received, to love and be loved, to speak and be heard, to always smile with true joy.
February 14th, 2010 at 3:21 am
I wish… for my beautiful family to be all in the same place. But angel wings took me across an ocean to the love of my life for today… and he reminded me of the joy in love and letting your artist’s soul sing. While I’m not bringing him back with me… yet… my wish now holds promise too. What could be better?
February 14th, 2010 at 4:15 am
i wish a baby for this 2010 year! my husband and me are married for a year, and we hope to have a big family, with plenty of laughs and joys.
February 14th, 2010 at 6:24 am
I wish to become like my mother. This is not a common wish among young women, but she has been such a strong spirit over the years, and demonstrated to me exactly how one should go through this world: with love and compassion above all else, with pride in you accomplishments and pride in yourself, humility enough to know that you do not have all the answers and to admit when you were wrong, strength enough to weather the challenges, and the courage to bend and let yourself cry when that is required. She moves through the world with such grace. She has no enemies, and I know of nobody who dislikes her, but wise women flock to her house for cups of tea. She delights in the small things, and makes her life a work of art.
I know that if I can continue to cultivate the qualities that my mother has instilled in me, then the marriage I’m about to enter into will be happy and blessed, my friendships will be plentiful and deep, and everything will be more beautiful. It will be a challenge, I do not have as much grace as she does – but I wish for it, because I know of no better way to make this life reflect the life I imagine.
February 14th, 2010 at 6:24 am
I wish to always have more than enough of all the good things in my life.
February 14th, 2010 at 6:28 am
I wish to live in a state of contentment. From the way I see my self, to the days my life is exploding. I wish for peace and acceptance that this world is bigger than me and that I must simply bring forth what I want out of life.
February 14th, 2010 at 8:29 am
Because I am content with myself, I want to give my wish to my best friend Cara so here it goes…
I wish for all of the good things in life for Cara: happiness, love, bliss, chocolate, new friendships, patience, tolerance, calm, peace, warmth, wealth, etc.
Cara, I know you are going through some difficult times. Here is my wish to you.
Love,
From a friend that cares about you.
February 14th, 2010 at 9:17 am
I wish for the American Dream.
Full of children, goats, fire-works, family, friends, bonfires, barbeques, big trucks that don’t get stuck, hand-me-downs, and lots of LOVE!
February 14th, 2010 at 9:29 am
Although I know that hardships only make you stronger, and surviving them only bring you wisdom sometimes I wish that my heart didn’t feel so heavy. The days that get me down, the days when my head is filled with memories of too many bad things, sometimes I wish they didn’t happen to me. But everyone has a story, no one has walked through life untouched by negativity, I know that…. but just sometimes I wish I could be free of the past.
February 14th, 2010 at 9:44 am
i wish i could show my loved ones how to be happy in their hearts.
i also wish the weekends were longer and the summers warmer.
xoxo
February 14th, 2010 at 10:00 am
That my mother finds her own inner happiness.
February 14th, 2010 at 10:13 am
I wish for a wedding planner to magically take all of the wedding stress I have been feeling for the past 3 months off my shoulders and help me figure this out so that my fiance and I have the perfect day to start the rest of our lives!!
February 14th, 2010 at 11:13 am
I wish for peace and balance. To not feel stress and worry over things beyond my control. To let go, to be present, and to enjoy the moment.
February 14th, 2010 at 12:15 pm
I wish to ‘practice what i preach’ by finding the balance and quality of life that i encourage my hospice patients and their families to strive for each and every day…..
February 14th, 2010 at 12:20 pm
i wish for love. true, comfortable, all-encompassing love.
the kind that consumes my mind…that brings a tear to my eye when i dwell upon it…the kind that i nestle into at night…the kind that writes me letters. the kind of love that i dance around in only my undies for…that i kiss on the forehead…that i make children with…that i buy flowers & make hummus for.
i wish for the kind of love that i have dreamt about my whole life…
the kind that every girl dreams about.
February 14th, 2010 at 12:20 pm
I wish for a lifetime of beautiful memories.
I’m a working mom, a wife, a second time student and an absent friend. Time is limited but I never forget the need to slow down, soak it all in and just be still with my only son. For a long time he was my wish and now that he is here (our one and only child) I wish for a lifetime of beautiful memories with him. The ability for my mind to remember that kiss, that hug, that endless giggle. The laughter that filled my own heart and that happiness that is always a buzz in our home.
February 14th, 2010 at 12:45 pm
I wish for all my family and friends to be well and happy. To find a balance between my work and home life to ensure I can be a good wife to my new husband. For love, life, laughter and peace.
February 14th, 2010 at 12:50 pm
I wish that on May 1st, 2010 -the day we marry- we enjoy the moments and remember what the day is about… Us…and, our love.
February 14th, 2010 at 1:19 pm
I wish for grace, inner strength & trust to create a quiet peace within myself…embracing the knowledge that everything is perfect in the present & the power of acceptance to set me free . Be present…smile…soak up the sunshine. Live boldly, laugh loudly, and love openly ~ Breathe it all in…and know…that all of this is happening exactly as it’s meant to be…
February 14th, 2010 at 2:23 pm
I wish to meet my husband in 2010. (An extra wish: that he is a good dancer.)
February 14th, 2010 at 2:30 pm
i wish for clarity in my career….what am i supposed to be doing with my life!?
February 14th, 2010 at 2:45 pm
My wish is for my young daughters — that in seeking to raise them to be strong women, their path at the crossroads of Right and Wrong is clearly illuminated. Thank you for the regular doses of love and light. Here’s to paying it forward…
February 14th, 2010 at 4:48 pm
I wish I had more free time to dedicate to my hobbies
February 14th, 2010 at 4:55 pm
I wish for my wedding day to be the most memorable and most beautiful day imaginable! …and no rain please…
February 14th, 2010 at 5:32 pm
I wish for a little more rest, a little less worry, and to be daily more grateful for the multitude of blessings in my life. That, and a bountiful supply of delicious coffee, chocolate, and time with beloved friends throughout the year – that is my wish!
February 14th, 2010 at 5:55 pm
I wish for an accepting heart to help me hurt a little less when I hear of all the sadness in the world, and a little more courage to take action that makes things change. I wish for my sweet little ones to have a long lives of health and most of all happiness. I wish for my beloved and me to always as we are today – in love and in sync. And most of all, I wish for gratitude – and to continue to not only be blessed, but to always remember that I am.
February 14th, 2010 at 6:15 pm
I wish that one day I will be able to successfully open up my very own coffee shop/cafe. I hope that it’s a cozy place people from around the neighborhood love to come to in order to get away and relax. =)
February 14th, 2010 at 6:16 pm
I wish my future husband a joyous day….whoever and wherever he may be.
February 14th, 2010 at 6:34 pm
I wish for a lovely little place to call ours. A creative, restful space to make a home with my soon to be husband

I wish (and pray) for greater faith in God’s care. The worries of life seem so small when I remember how much He loves me, and how powerful He is to provide.

I wish for peace in my dads breaking heart…we loss his mom on New Years EVE just before midnight and he is just still a mess. I hate seeing him so sad especially when he is NOT a sad person at all.

Wishes are the most magical thing. My personal wish is to travel the world and attend one of your workshops. My whole life I have longed to travel and photograph new places and things. I always imagined myself as “Sabrina” who found herself in paris.
I also wish a healthy and wonderful life for my two newborn nieces and nephews.
February 15th, 2010 at 11:13 am
i wish that my 3 week old nephew will get out of NICU soon and grow to be strong and wonderful…i wish that my sister who is a single mom of 3 beautiful girls will soon find the happiness she deserves…i wish that my parent’s minds will fill with peace again instead of worry…i know all 3 of my wishes will come true one day.
February 15th, 2010 at 11:13 am
I wish for more quality time with my family.
February 15th, 2010 at 11:25 am
i wish for contentment and for courage – once you know you are doing all you can to reach your dreams and to really put your heart on the line to make them a reality – the true gift is to have the wisdom to look around and be grateful for it all; to feel that deep sense of contentment in your soul.
February 15th, 2010 at 11:26 am
i wish to be more patient and trust that all my dreams… all that is true to my heart… will come true in the perfect time.
February 15th, 2010 at 11:28 am
Your images are my daily wish, and you help them to come true. I wish for more beauty, peace and quiet in the world. xoxo

February 15th, 2010 at 2:14 pm
I wish i could find my perfect job – one that would help me make the world a better place. I wish that life would always be full of sunshine for all those I love, and for everyone actually.
More sunshine and chocolate.
February 15th, 2010 at 2:44 pm
I wish to be a better daughter, sister, and friend to those who mean the most to me.

How pretty!
I’m wishing that this is the month where my pregnancy test reads ‘positive’!
February 16th, 2010 at 4:50 am
..i must admit you really stopped me in my tracks with this question… ..i obviously wish for a lifetime of beautiful memories.. i wish for love and passion for everyone.. i wish people noticed all of the ideas, inspirations and feelings flowing in the air around us… but what do i wish for most of all?..
..most most of all?..
i wish for my family to be reunited again one day… i live far away from my two beloved brothers and my mum.. and even though I have a beautiful life here, a part of me misses them very very much…. especially when one of them is getting married this year, the other is expecting a beautiful baby… it hurts that every single day i am less and less present in their lives…
therefore i wish one day all three of us bought a piece of land together, i wish we built our houses there and have a beautiful garden.. with apple trees and currant bushes.. i wish our children played together, i wish they were best friends with each other.. and i wish i could photograph that joy, laughter and love.. i wish i had my workshop at the back of our house where i could make my own crowns and encaustic paintings… i wish we had sunday dinners together.. i wish we sang and danced together.. i wish we helped each other, laughed together and cried together.. i wish we were close to each other… this is my biggest wish…
thank you for making me think about it… xoxoxoxo
February 16th, 2010 at 6:20 am
My big wish would be to attend your “Lovely Workshop” in Paris! I am so inspired by you!
February 16th, 2010 at 6:41 am
My wish, as an immigrant into Israel from England, is that this will be the year this region, this beautiful, conflicted region, finally sees peace. True, lasting and decided peace.
My wedding is in May and while there are a million things I would wish for my fiance and I, for our wonderful families and amazing friends, I wish – with all that I have, with everything inside me – that the fighting could stop, the killing could stop, the battle for land could be decided, and that my children could know peace in their lifetime. I wish, I truly truly wish.
February 16th, 2010 at 8:18 am
My life is so blessed. I wish only love and acceptance for my son, only a heart filled of kisses for my husband, only happiness and joy for my loved ones and only adoration and kindness for my English bulldog.
February 16th, 2010 at 10:28 am
I wish for a happy ever after…
February 16th, 2010 at 11:31 am
I wish for a self-love that’s complete and full, and to be surrounding by love always…friend love, family love, and romantic love.
February 16th, 2010 at 1:44 pm
i wish for both my baby boy and baby girl to be born healthy, happy, and very very chubby. i also wish that i won’t get too many stretch marks from carrying these two sweet blessings…
February 16th, 2010 at 2:18 pm
I wish that wake up every morning as in love as I feel now. I wish that I can see those eyes smiling at me always.
February 16th, 2010 at 4:07 pm
I wish for all my dreams to come true…big and small…
February 16th, 2010 at 6:07 pm

After a year where my grandfather and favorite uncle died unexpectedly, and my mother and stepfather were the victims of a hit and run drunk driver (one week before my wedding across the country and leaving my stepfather with a broken neck) I wish for a healthy year for my family. And that’s all.
February 17th, 2010 at 6:11 pm
I wish for all of my loved ones to be able to make the trip across country to our wedding in September so that forever our hearts are filled with joy and memories from that day.
February 18th, 2010 at 12:40 pm
My wish is for my husband to get a full time job (with benefits).
February 18th, 2010 at 5:28 pm
We’ve spent the past decade – or more – planning and preparing for a good life. My wish … that this is the year that all our hard work will be realized.

February 24th, 2010 at 11:04 am
I wish that this lovely little creature growing in my belly has a beautiful life filled with so much joy and happiness and that her birthing day is a peaceful and beautiful bringing forth of life. Oh, and if she wants to some soon, that would be wonderful because mama looks like she swallowed a watermelon…or two. Happy, Happy Day!
March 10th, 2010 at 8:25 pm
I wish for no regrets. For a full life with my amazing husband and beautiful daughter. To enjoy the little moments of every day and to have more of them. To grow in love daily. I wish to feel like I work less – that work will always feel like what I love to do and that I do what I love more.
March 17th, 2010 at 8:26 am
This came up in my RSS feeder two days ago, but then I clicked the link & saw it was from a month ago…hm. I will still share my wish though : ) The other night I watched an old Betty Davis movie Now, Voyager and the last line is “why wish for the moon when we have the stars?” So my wish is to see the many stars in my life & appreciate the abundance of what I have.
February 7th, 2011 at 8:10 pm
I wish that I and the people around me will be ready when Jesus comes again for the second time. I hope that my ex-boyfriend will find a good mate and i hope he will forget the times of heartache and be lifted up to a higher place with HIM.
