My daughter And Husband Made A Wish In German

At our daughter's birthday party, she made a wish in German in front of the candles, she thought I didn't understand German. "I wish Renee could become my mom this year."

My husband chuckled and gently ruffled her hair. "That might just come true sooner than you think."

I stood there, stunned, as the cake slipped from my hands and fell to the floor.

My husband looked at me with concern, "What's wrong?"

I shook my head repeatedly, forcing a smile, "Just slipped, I guess."

Only I knew the truth-I had understood the German wish and was so flustered that I couldn't even hold onto the cake.
