I had one of those dreams where you wake up and it felt so real. This dream wasn’t just any ordinary dream, it was a dream about my mom. I love having these dreams. I honestly feel like it is her way to visit me and a way for me to visit her in human form. Yes, I know it’s not a physical feeling, but I see her, I feel her (in the dream I do at least), I hear her, and it is very real to me.
In this dream my mom tells me she has some news to tell me, and she doesn’t look very happy at first. She then tells me that she is a little bit upset with me. I of course was shocked, and instead of being reactionary about it I questioned her, and tried to reason with her. I don’t remember exactly what she said, but she said something about the way I am talking. She says it is too mature. In the dream, I am still calm and now wondering why she would say that to me. I then recall some of the mother daughter arguments we would have when I was a teenager (and I must admit sometimes in my adulthood) where I would be quick to give a smart ass remark, or some spoiled whiny tantrum voice.
As I remember all these (in my dream) I look at her, smile and say, “Do you just miss me being a little girl again mom?” That’s when her stern face cracks and shows a broken smile and admits she does miss her baby. I hug her so tight and I say “I miss you too” It was the longest hug ever. I woke up realizing it was only a dream, but not disappointed by it.
Thanks for visiting mom. I miss you very much. Don’t worry about me, I may be getting older but I will always be your little girl.
