Squish #100- Mayaguez, Puerto Rico

We made it all the way to 100! Hard to think I just started asking for squishes about 2 months ago. But don't think I'm stopping at 100. I have more on the way. I can't stop now. LOL.

The wish:

"L" is for letters.

Squish #97- Raleigh, NC, USA

The wish:

Aspire to the principle, behave with virtue, abide by benevolence, and immerse yourself in the arts.

MUSIC/INSTRUMENTS
The Chinese believe that music is an expression of harmony that exists among heaven, earth, and man, and nature has provided man with eight kinds of such materials to build musical instruments. Therefore, traditionally, Chinese instruments are also classified according to the type of material they are made from. They are stone, metal, silk, bamboo, wood, skin, gourd, and clay.

We wish for you curiosity, happiness, and an appreciation for arts of all kinds.

The wish:

A dream is a wish your heart
When you're fast asleep
In dreams you lose your heartaches
Whatever you wish for, you keep
Have faith in your dreams and someday
Your rainbow will come smiling through
No matter how your heart is grieving
If you keep on believing
The dream that you wish will come true.

-from Cinderella (Disney)

Follow your heart. Find your dreams and live them. I wish you happiness always.
-Jennifer Ryan

Squish #91- Tasmania, Australia

The wish:

When flowing water...meets with obstacles on its path, a blockage in its journey, it pauses. It increases in volume and strength, filling up in front of the obstacle and eventually spilling past it...
Do not turn and run, for there is nowhere worthwhile for you to go. Do not attempt to push ahead into the danger...emulate the example of the water: Pause and build up your strength until the obstacle no longer represents a blockage.

From the I Ching

May you meet the problems you face in life with courage and self belief.

Thanks for the squish!

If you want happiness for a lifetime, help someone.

--Chinese Proverb--

There's only one just like you!

Squish #88- Shannon Hills, AR, USA

I chose this fabric because it sort of symbolizes me. I collect rubber duckies, and I let Reese play with them. When she feels bad, I let her play with my ducks. Plus she LOVES bath time. LOL.

I've also decided I'm not stopping this collection thing at 100. I just want to have AT LEAST 100. More wishes is a good thing right? At some point, I'll stop, but that won't be until I'm pretty sure I have all the ones I'm waiting for. :)

Squish #87- Shannon Hills, AR, USA

This is 1 of 2 squishes I am making for Reese. This isn't the actual squish, just the fabric it comes from. I love My Little Pony, and when I bought this fabric, Reese carried it around for some 2 days. Reese also loves My Little Pony fruit snacks. So I'm using this for one squish. I haven't decided what the wish will be yet. I'll update this post when I do.

Squish #86- San Juan, Puerto Rico
