"But there is some kind of magic, I suppose, in wanting something so dearly. Saying it out loud. And holding on to it, working for it, and waiting on it to materialize. In that glorious moment when a wish does come true, that's the closest thing to magic I've ever known." Grandpa Cody, Molly Bell and the Wishing Well
