if wishes were horses

"I want to ride a real horse", says Ms J. I reply, "There are no real horses." "uh-huh." To which I reply, "No." "uh-huh."
"No."
"Yes. I saw one before."
"That was just in your imagination."
"uh-huh."
"No."
"Mommy!! Tell the truth!! Pleeease!!"
"oooooo, I'm all about the truth. You could just call me Oprah"
"But I don't believe in unicorns."
"Ah, see now there's something we can agree on. Neither do I. So, why is it you want to ride a real horse?"
"I like the way they move up and down and side to side."
"Isn't that a rocking horse?"
"Real horses do it too."
"hmmm. okay..."
