It was hard getting out of bed this morning...

...I had a wonderful dream last night. Not of Aaron, unfortunately, but of his younger brother. I dreamt that DrummerWife gave birth to our second child, another boy, and waking from that dream was simultaneously a happy thing, and a sad thing. While our second child could never replace Aaron, not even in my dreams, it was just such a happy dream.

Now, if only I could remember this dream second child's name...

I remember having a similar dream, crying happily and telling everyone "he is breathing, he is alive! Look!" and telling the baby he has a big brother in heaven.

It was awful to wake up from, I wanted to stay in that dream and that happiness. But maybe those dreams have taught us to hope again.

Chan, that's actually a very good point. I've had one or two of those dreams, but woke up pretty sad. Josh was very happy when he told me about this dream and was full of smiles and that alone was very hopeful to me.
