My daughter is a "Wish Kid" through Make-A-Wish. The quote made me think of going to a forest in Finland to meet my daughter's "who" wish. Konsta Punkka is an amazing nature photographer, who now has over a million followers on Instagram, but 8/2017 he was certainly more obscure. She had seen his work on Instagram looking at nature photos and he was becoming known as the squirrel whisperer. We are so grateful for the amazing Wish Day, as it provided her something to look forward to and also he surpassed any dream in his generous time and kindness spent with us. He was remarkable, and I think he was a lot surprised at the time (and humbled) to be the person someone would want to meet in all the possibilities. Indeed quite a connection was made. At the end of 2017 he posted a highlights story on Instagram which featured her Wish Day. I recall my daughter screamed from the other room when she saw that!

      Beautiful page and story, I really love your photos, the journaling, and all of the clustering all over the page, but what I most like is that your daughter spent such a great time taking photos with Konsta. So glad that he posted a highlights story on Instagram too.
