I've told this story to many people, but just feel like it's too good to keep to myself. We were doing activities for Martin Luther King Jr.'s birthday last week, specifically talking about dreams and how to achieve them. This particular activity required the students to fill in two blanks. One blank said "My dream is to:" and the other said "I can help my dream come true by:". So, one super cute 7 year old (who I'm technically not supposed to name on the internet) filled his in.
My dream is to: be an NBA basketball player.
I can help my dream come true by: wishing on a wishing star.
Ummmmm....yeah! Okay, he had to ask me how to spell basketball and player and wishing, but this is still one of the most precious stories ev-er! He's even cuter in real life.

so basically "NBA" was all he knew how to spell... good thing he used "wishing" twice, otherwise you might have lost your patience.
