day 15: "i am thankful for.......SHOOTING STARS!"

.....last night i watched a star fall from the sky.  this, of course, was not my first observation of a 'shooting star'.  i have seen many throughout my 39 years, but i am always in awe of them.  what is it about them that captivates me...??  do you know....?  do they fill you with wonder too...??

one night, years ago, while my family and i were camping in montana....my husband and i, after tucking the boys into their sleeping bags for the night, stayed up to watch for shooting stars.  we counted over 20 within a 2 hour time span!!!  AMAZING are the skies, even at night, in montana.   i made a lot of wishes that night....that have all since come true ;)

so, if you are blessed with a clear night sky tonight....watch out for a falling star and make a wish.  you never know....it just might come true :)

Star light, star bright
First star I see tonight
I wish I may, I wish I might
Have the wish I wish tonight.
