A Dream...

Last night I had an awe inspiring dream about our baby Owen.

Michael is forever kissing my belly, 7 1/2 months

I was looking at myself in the mirror. I noticed my belly was unusually wide and that Owen was lying horizontally inside. I could feel him cradled and was surprised when I could feel his little head and bum easily through my skin and could visualize exactly how he was laying.

Michael's hand

Then I moved slightly and this bright, golden light hit my belly just right. I was shocked! I could see him through my skin which had turned translucent.

Our hands together

He was beautiful! Bathed in warm light and through my belly I could see details of his whole cuddly, baby body snuggled up inside. He had those puffy newborn eyes. They were closed and he was sleeping peacefully. He was chubby and had dark hair and his features looked very much like Michael's.

But he was also very much, his own little baby.

What an amazing gift! I feel like I really got a glimpse of him.

    Hands down, this is one of the most beautiful posts ever- words and pictures. You'll be so glad you recorded this dream. It's the kind of thing you think you'll never forget, but sometimes those things slide out through the holes that mommyhood creates.

    Thanks so much everyone. I am really glad I wrote this one down. You're right Nora, so much of these things go unrecorded in mommyhood.
