make a wish, but not THAT one

You know the phrase, 'Find a penny, pick it up...all day long you'll have good luck?'

Some people say that phrase every time they see a shiny copper coin. That's their thing.

Our thing is to toss the pennies into fountains and make a wish. And so we found ourselves, leaning over a fountain that happened to be along our route as we waited in a never-ending line for a Disney attraction. Hoping to break up the boredom and the 'How much longers?, I handed our 5-year-old a penny and noticed a mom behind us do the same thing. And the rest is history...

Hayden: I wish for Papaw Mike to come back and see us.

Kid behind us: I wish for Tanner to die
.

Alrighty then.

Sadly, Hayden walked away and said 'Too bad that won't come true.' Thanks for reading!
