I slept with an alligator last night, my six year old son. I was kicked in the ribs, elbows to the head, covers – gone. My son said to me in the morning, with a big grin mind you, and mouth gaping, “Did I take over the bed?”
“Yes, in fact, you did,” I reply with a begrudging smile. For the past couple weeks every other night, one the kids will wander in saying he/she has had bad dreams. I’m not surprised because I know what’s really going on – stress.
One of the best indicators of what is going on with you, is to examine what is going on with yours kids or your partner. If they are acting out of the ordinary, guess what? I’m betting you are too!
Lots of things are shifting in our home right now – new doors opening and a move is on the horizon. As exciting as that is, it’s stressful too. That’s how the unknown tends to be. Yet somehow, slipping into bed with Mom and Dad seems to make it a little bit better…And surprisingly, it is.
Are the loved ones in your home acting out of the ordinary? What are they be reflecting back to you????
