A Big Slide

As I entered my 3 yr old's room this morning she was just waking up. She had big fat tears in her eyes and a very sad face. I picked her up and held her as she proceeded to tell me about a dream she had had.

"I was in a slide"

"You were in a slide?"

"A big slide"

Tears are streaming down her face.

"It's okay, Andyn. You're awake now and it was just a dream. It wasn't real. I've got you."

"They weft me."

More tears.

"They left you?"

Rubbing her back I told her, "everything is okay."

"Ainsley and Asher saved me."
