I love this list…I love that you took the time to think about those things.
Sometimes, just realizing that you wish something can help you focus on making it happen. I wish at least one of these things comes true for you soon. ((hugs))
I love it! I agree with you on all counts (except sister calling, I don’t have a sister). I hope you get many of the things you wish for.
I loved this… would you mind if I maybe did my own similar list? I’ll link back to you…
Absolutely!!
Just did!
Yes to all the above. Wouldn’t it be great if Starbucks delivered?
I wish chocolate was completely fat free.
I love your list Maria! Careful with those M&Ms! It takes a whole football field to walk them off! And… you can hem your own curtains! I promise! I will teach you!
I find myself wishing many of those things too…
*hugs*

Hahaha! Were you inside my mind?? Is great to know that I am not the only with this wish lists!
Blessings and keep the good job at mamavation!
I like this post – I wish you all the best!
I wish you were local to me!
Your wish for a group of gfs would become a reality…it still CAN! 
I think you’ve found some new friends through Mamavation, you know?
Great list, I could have written most of it myself.
I came, I’m commenting, hope that makes at least one wish come true
Have a great evening!
TOTALLY wish Starbucks would deliver a yum macciato! Drool! http://www.mummydeals.org
very thoughtful list- I really liked reading it! I think you’re really on to something with the starbucks delivery idea!!
my solution for hemming curtains is that iron-on hemming tape it’s cheating, I know, but it works!!
Oh girl, we could go on forever with a list like this (meaning I could come up with quite a few myself!!). From many of these it sounds like you need an assistant to deliver the Starbucks and help you with stress, etc. I wish for one of those for you… ; )
Well done — I SO hear you on this stuff, especially the ones about running and charging phones! I admire your honesty. Thanks for sharing this list.
I have to agree with all of your wishes! We can start our own circle of girlfriends! You’re my bloggy buddy!! You need to get yourself out of that negative self image mindset. I know it’s super hard but you’re beautiful- and I’ve seen you on video!
I wish for just one day, I could see myself through someone else’s eyes and see what they see that I don’t. *sigh*
i agree with almost everything…I won’t fly, either. That’s the big one! I bet as you go through with Mamavation, this list will get smaller and smaller.
Hi Maria-you are doing so great and I am so proud of you!! Now get ready to kick some TaeBo ass.
Maria, you are still so young. There’s plenty of time to tackle at least some of these items on your list.
It gets cold in Canada in the wintertime. Knitting is a great past time. Make scarves for the kiddies and main man.
Buy a keyboard for the kids and I’ll teach you how to play some basic piano.
Try flying with the kids. You’re too busy entertaining them to notice you’re afraid.
By the time you finish your weight loss quest, your rings will probably be too big
Buy yourself the Kindle next time you cross the border. You deserve it girl!
I mostly agree that I wish the laundry folded itself…i hate laundry.
This was a great post, as usual. Touching. I wish for so many of those things, too. You are a wonderful person, you know that?
Yeah… It sucks, don’t it?
Let’s drink and be merry. Only 90 cals a glass!
xoxo
Drink WINE, that is. I left that part off by mistake because I’ve been indulging. Don’t hate me. Let’s hug.
I agree, very touching. Some of the things made me a bit sad to read, and some I could even relate to…..you’re awesome for being so honest and sharing.
Can I just copy and past this list onto my blog and say it was by me?
