Well, I didn't think I would blog about this issue...but I decided that you all would pray for this little one with me and maybe she would sleep better. 4 nights ago Taylor (our 4 year old) woke up...talking about scary dreams she was having. I didn't think too much of it....Taylor is well known for finding numerous excuses not to sleep, so I didn't think it would be a big thing. I was wrong. She has been waking up every morning since....talking about scary dreams that happen when her eyes close. Its so sad!! What are you supposed to say?
Sometimes I feel like the more you bring it up...the more she thinks about it, other times I am really curious about what she is dreaming about!! This morning an interesting conversation happened between Taylor and Maddie. They were eating breakfast....Maddie had just gotten up and was sitting by Taylor and I was making breakfast. Anyways, Taylor asked Maddie " Do you see the scary breaking when you close your eyes?" To which Maddie said "No". Taylor goes "I do".
So, tonight before she went to bed....we just tried to spend extra time with Taylor and make bedtime as peaceful as possible. After I read to her and tucked her in....Daddy snuggled with her and told her a story and then Taylor said to him " I don't want bad dreams." Don then told her that they could pray and ask Jesus to take away the bad dreams....to which she said "ok".
We will see how it goes....but pray for this child if you think about it. We are all praying for pleasant dreams over here!!
