Hannah woke up in hysterics last night crying, "Mommy, there is a monster in my closet!" I put her on the pillow on the floor next to my bed and went to get her blanket from her room. She slept peacefully the rest of the night.
This morning on the way to school, all she talked about was her bad dream that is in the closet. At first she started to cry when she was telling Richard about it. He comforted her and gave her a hug and let her know, "It was just a dream, it is in your head."
Hannah argued that, "No, it was real and it is in our closet." She proceeded to ask me for the next 40 minutes, "Mommy, will you get the bad dream out of my closet? Mom, I want you to get that bad dream out." And so forth.
My little angel was so upset and didn't want to go into her closet with me, but we are going on a bad monster dream hunt so she can have peaceful dreams tonight.
Poor Hannah! I hope she doesn't have any more bad dreams!
