Of Dreams and What Will Become...

03 February 2009

The husband woke me up at an ungodly hour. I was not too cheery about it. I'm not usually grumpy when I wake up but to be awoken in the middle of a very bad dream is another thing. I stood up and walked like a zombie to the little one's room. Apparently he screamed a lot, which I never heard at all, he must have had bad dreams too.

And the dream is something women mostly fear. It's betrayal and more. It hurts like a dagger through my heart. I couldn't breathe properly. Fuming mad. He consoled me that it was just a dream, and that he and the little one are always there for me. That was so sweet. I went back to sleep a little less mad.

Then the alarm clock went off. Ah, our day is about to start but my body is sore and I am not feeling to well to do what I need to do. I hit the snooze button a couple of times. And when the husband tried to wake me up, I told him we have another little boy. He said he always knew that! Yes, this is the second time I've dreamed about having another baby boy. As weird dreams get, I saw myself trying to nurse a very different personality than that of my little one.

Next thing I knew, the husband came with thermometer, flu meds, and the little one's milk before he left for work. Even with a very bad flu, he took time to do this. We'll be seeing our family physician after lunch.

It feels wonderful to wake up beside a very wonderful man...

I'd love someone to wake me up in the middle of a bad dream. Bangunguts? Or are you reading too much tragic stories or watching too many sad movies? Good thing D'Husband is so level headed.

Go back to daydreaming!
