Right, now to hopefully restore sanity to the conversation. Here's another topic.
What was one of the scariest dreams your toddler has ever had?
It was between 2:00-3:00 AM when he woke up from his nightmare. I made a little "dream amulet" for him so I can record his and my dreams. I saw everything that went on in his dream.
He was in a creepy-looking castle. It looked as if it had been abandoned for quite some time. Stanley was exploring it, with a grin on his face, until he noticed that he was being followed. He looked back to see what it was, and he saw a demented hulk of a man.
The man began to chase Stanley around the castle. Judging by the noises and movements the man made, he was either dumb or deranged, probably the latter. One thing I noticed him do every time he found Stanley is wave his arms wildly in the air and shout,
"Stanley!! Stanley!!"
The man clumsily tried to hit and kick Stanley several times and laughed a dimwit's laugh, but Stanley dodged them all. Stanley hid under a bed at some point in the dream. Everything seemed to be quiet. When Stanley came out from under the bed, the man was there, doing a crazed hopping dance, and of course shouting,
"Stanley!! Stanley!!"
He woke up, shouting
"Ah! fiend!"
