When You Wish Upon A Star

We tried to make the most of each and every second we had at the beach. Last night, I took Olivia down to the beach to take some last minute pictures and when we returned, Phil took Will for one last beach hurrah as well. They watched the waves, the lighthouse and decided to watch the stars come out from atop the lifeguard's tower.

When the first star appeared, Phil told Will that he could make a wish. "I wish we could stay at the beach forever," he said seriously. (Me too, buddy.) Then another star appeared and Will told Daddy it was his turn to make a wish. "Will, I wish that we will always be best buddies." Will looked at him and answered mater-of-factly, "Daddy, that's a wish that's going to come true."
