Megan's Diary EntriesDiary Navigation: |
March 1, 2000
Hello All:Hope everyone is having a good week. Our week has been another good one!!! We did take Jordan to see The Tigger Movie as a reward for taking naps again. It was fun, she loved the popcorn and at the beginning of the movie she turned to me and said, "I love it." When I told her in the afternoon that would be going to the movies when Daddy got home she said, "I want Daddy come home, get shoes, coat, go bye bye in Daddy's car, go movies, see Tigger movie and Pooh, and Rabba, and Piget. I want get toy, go McDonald's get fries, chicken nuggets and toy." I was stunned -- that is the most she has ever said in a conversion all on her own. My baby is growing up. And she has still been napping all this week too. :)
On Thursday we went to Chuck E. Cheese with some friends who brought their other friends' two daughters, Christal and Angel. Christal is going to be 3 this month and she and Jordan are very good friends. They had a blast there, but it made me realize what a brute Jordan is compared to other girls. Christal is 7 months older than she is, but Jordan was the one that was playing on all the big slides and tubes. Some older kids tried to push her out of the ball pit and she stood up for herself and told them no and kept playing.
I had a bad dream about Jordan last night that I can't get out of my head. In the dream, for some reason, my 21-year-old brother was babysitting her (would never happen, he is sooo irresponsible) and DH and I were out in the car somewhere when I told him to turn around and go home because I had a bad feeling about Jordan. When we got to our house my brother was upstairs sleeping and Jordan was nowhere to be seen but the door was open. We go searching for her and at the bottom of our driveway (it is a long one that is shared with other houses), the fire hydrant was lying on the ground in the road and there was twisted metal everywhere but no one was around. I start screaming for Jordan in a hysterical voice and I soon hear a kid crying and then she stumbles out of the neighbors back yard dressed only in a diaper, crying with bruises everywhere looking very scared. I grab her and hold her and we are both crying and then I woke up because the baby was crying. I woke up still feeling the fear that I felt in the dream. I hate when that happens. Sometimes I wish I could go see a dream analyst since once in a while I will have such strange dreams that stay with me for a couple of days. I hate bad dreams about the kids because I worry that I am dreaming of the future. OK, so I'm a little strange today. Sorry!!! Until next week!!
Megan and Jordan
