A few weeks ago as we were driving through downtown Charlotte at night, my daughter Cozette (9) said, “I wish I could go to the top of that building at night.” as she gazed wondrously at the Duke Energy Center with its colorful LED lights that runs its vertical length and connects at the top. I immediately took out my phone and DM’d my friend Lisa Hoffmann who works in the Duke building. I explained Cozette’s wish, and we made secret arrangements to take her to the top of the building while downtown was still all lit up for the holidays.
Last night was the night. She had no idea.
Thank you, Lisa, for helping make this little wish come true.

Greatness. Thanks for sharing — I will make sure to hear my girls’ wishes and make as many of them come true as I can.
