Dreams

Jordan fell asleep on the couch while we were watching the animated series, Avatar: The Last Airbender last night.  So I hauled her into her own bed (haul is the best word because she is HUGE now.  It's hard to carry her at all).  About 4:30 am she came into our room.

Jordan: "Mom, you forgot our prayer."
Me: "Jordan, you fell asleep on the couch before we could do prayers."
Jordan: "Could I cuddle with you and do our prayers now."
Me: "Sure."
She climbs under the covers and we snuggle in.  I recite the prayer Jordan has constructed and wants repeated nightly. 'Dear God, please protect Jordan while she is sleeping.  Give her the sweetest of dreams about ponies, princesses, castles, and pink sparkly dresses.  Thanks you God for the sun, soil, rain, and flowers.'  She then adds in a person she wants to pray for.

Jordan: "Good night Momma."
Me: "Night Jord."
We both fell back asleep and at an unknown amount of time later, I feel Jordan's belly shaking.  I realize she's giggling in her sleep.  Then she starts laughing out loud.  After a couple of minutes I realize she is awake.

Me: "What are you dreaming about Jordy?"
Jordan: "Oh Mom, it was the funniest thing.  Donald Duck was screaming "DUCK! DUCK!" and then he fell in the doggy pool.  Do you know who was in the pool with Donald?!  Free Willy!"
Me: "That is funny Jordan.  That must have been a big doggy pool."
Jordan: "It was HUGE!" 
She then started laughing hysterically again.
