Last night (actually early this morning), I was awakened by Soccer Chick.
“Mama, I had a bad dream,” she whispered desperately.
As I opened my eyes, I noticed that she had her pillow and blankie in hand. She was looking to crawl into bed with me.
I pulled myself up and told her I’d follow her to her room. She wanted me to stay, so I assured her that I would stick to my side of the bed…not roll over into her space.
Apparently my presence was just what she needed to ease back into sleep.
When she woke up later in the morning, she told me that she had one of those dreams where people are chasing you and then get into your house.
Poor dear. I think she ate too much Key Lime Pie over the last couple of days.
Still, it’s nice to know that she still comes to me when it counts.
Just call me “Big Bad Monster Chaser.”
