Wild Nights

Lately CJ has been having dreams. Vivid, crazy, memorable dreams. And with the dreams comes the occasional nightmare.

So there I am, peacefully snoring in my king-sized bed WHEN…

Suddenly CJ is beside me, screaming in terror.

(this is not a pleasant way to wake up, FYI)

I try to comfort CJ, but between his flailing and my stupor, all I manage to do is get myself WHACKED right in the lip. And it HURTS!

“I’M BLEEDING!” I shout in Jay’s general direction, “DO SOMETHING!”

Jay grabs CJ and holds him. “CJ! It’s ok!”

“THERE’S A WIGGLY SNAKE!” howls CJ, “RIGHT THERE!” he points at the foot of the bed, and the deranged glint in his eye is testament to the fact that he really SEES a snake there.

I wake up the next morning more tired than usual with a big bloody spot on my lower lip.

Some people say you give up an exciting nightlife when you have children, but I have to disagree.

Ours is positively OVERFLOWING with drama.
