Wishing on a star


After I found out what Ashley's name was changed to and received information on her I found myself going outside on the patio every night.  If the sky was clear I would look up and find the brightest star I can see and then I would find myself repeating the nursery rhyme....

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

Then I would close my eyes really tight and wish.  I would wish that my First Daughter would make some kind of contact.

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

Then after repeating this silly rhyme I would watch the stars and wonder...is she looking at the same stars and wishing on them too?

There is a song can't remember the name of it but it was talking about sleeping under the same bright star or sky something to that matter.It always makes me think of my daughter.

Somewhere Out There by Linda Ronstadt, it's from the movie An American Tail. That song always reminds me of Ashley too.
