So today, as my mom, my daughter and I drove past the zoo,
I spotted the enormous, magical looking Zooballoon, anchored to the ground.
Me: Would you ever go up on the Zooballoon?

Mom: (softly) It’s my dream.
Me: What?!? Seriously?!?
Mom: It is. It’s my dream to go up in it. I want daddy to propose to me in it.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again:
Apple and tree, how close you be.
Oh, and dad?
In case you’re reading this…
I have two words for you:
hint
hint.
mommy, ever after
