As a mum, I like to think I'm entitled to a certain amount of spur of the moment fixes! Just random crazy ideas thought up on the spot to make things better.
Well... yesterday morning my beautiful little girl woke with yucky memories of a bad dream. Thats no good. Its especially no good when it comes to bed time again and she does not want to go to sleep as she is worried about another night of bad dreams - and rightly so. But I was exhausted and just wanted bed time to go smoothly! So quick sticks I asked her to give me the bad dream and I cupped my hands to catch it.
She of course looked at me with a mixed smile, jumping between wondering if I was crazy and what was I talking about! Just throw it at me, out of your head I said and so she did! I made her give it three times to totally get it all out and I quickly clasped my hands together and ran to the front door, opening it and threw it out!! (The things we do)
Surprisingly she was more than satisfied with this and it was lights out. AND low and behold it worked! it was a nightmare free sleep.... way to go Mum.
I have been having some funky dreams myself and waking in a sweat. And lucky for me, this morning my girl demanded I throw it all to her! fingers crossed it works tonite
