Every month my friend writes a letter to her son (and now to her new daughter, also).  She tells him what he's been doing, how he's growing and changing and how she feels about him.  A sentence from one of these letter gave me the entire idea for my 3-book Alex story.  Here it is:
Yes. Three books from that. Ideas are everywhere, people.
I've become such a baby junkie that I can't even leave you alone anymore, because what if a goblin snatches you away when I am not looking?!
Yes. Three books from that. Ideas are everywhere, people.
 

That is one of the best genesises of a story I have ever come across. :D
