Our 9-year old daughter usually starts her birthday countdown a month in advance and we hear her escalating excitement for 30 days until she reaches the climax on her special day.
But no matter how much she has enjoyed her special day, she’s a little down at the end of it. She doesn’t want the day that she’s been waiting for for a year, and anxiously counting down towards for a month, to just end! She wishes it could go on forever.
Don’t we too wish that certain days of the year could go on forever? What’s the ending line of any classic fairytale?
