Nightmares


Last night I was talking with the boys about what they can say in their personal prayers. Gabey mentioned asking for help to not have nightmares.

Yes, Gabey, that's right.


Fast forward to the middle of the night when I hear Gabey suddenly crying (this happens fairly often). I go in there and find him crying but not really awake. I stroke his head and tell him it's OK, thinking my poor boy probably had a nightmare.


He stops for a minute, eyes still closed, then says, "I wanted a cat!", and the crying resumes.


Funny. My nightmare would be if we DID have a cat.
