Changing the course a little

So I've been thinking about the story that I've been working on and I think that I might try to tweak it a bit. instead of having some ability I was thinking...
There were once four little girls at the Oklahoma State Fair. They were all holding hands and wearing matching plaid dresses, each in a different color. They also had white collars with their initials stitched on them. They meet a balloon man and he gives them each a different colored balloon and tells them if they pop it they will get a wish that will last an hour. Most people are too afraid to pop their balloons because they think they won't have anything if they give it up. Tara goes first because she is the most brave even if she is not the oldest. Each girl makes a wish and it shows something about their character and their desires, and they each learn something very valuable- yet not preachy. Actually it's kind of humorous.
Please let me know what you would wish for and what you think the others should wish for- remember you are a little girl.
Maybe Tara would wish she had all brothers (hee hee).
What would I wish for? I don't know at all...

Perhaps the fair could be changed to a faire from many ages past. Or not. Maybe someone could go for a long adventurous journey while holding on to the baloon. I bet your younger sister might wish to be like her older sister. They would probably wish for their own rooms too. I'll have to think of better ideas.

That's funy because when we were in Middle school we thought we were cool when we had our own rooms and our own (get this!) telephone extension in our room. Happy 13th birthday!

I think the youngest sister might wish for a superpower. I like this story idea very much, but i don't think you should give up the other. It was neat too.

Everytime I can remember, honestly, making a wish when i threw a coin in the fountain at the mall...I think i always wished for a boyfriend, even when i was in elementary school.
