Maybe if we're lucky we'll/we might/we're going to meet...

MOM (to daughter): Dad and I thought we could go for a walk in the woods after breakfast if you like. You know, maybe, if we're lucky, we'll/we might/we're going to meet that squirrel again.

Would 'we'll meet', 'we might meet', and 'we're going to meet' all be natural in this dialog? Which one do you prefer?

My preference is for "we'll meet" but "we might meet" works too. I'm not keen on "we're going to meet".

My natural response would be "we'll get to meet", but from the original options I guess the closest to that is 'we'll meet'.

I also dislike 'going to' because it sounds too definite contrasted against the happenstance of "if we're lucky".
