Son

I've been having the same most wonderful, special, relaxing and calming dream for the past three nights. I say the same, but really it's variations of the same. The dream is centralised around my son, 14 years old, the good times we are having together, the close bond we have, the 'man' thing a father & son get if they are really lucky.

But I don't have a son. I have three daughters. Three wonderful, beautiful and loving daughters.

And yet I keep dreaming of my son. He would have been about 14 now.  We lost him four months before he was born. Who knows what he would have been like, what he would have become, who he would look like?

Well, I saw him this week, and he looked like me. And we were good buddies. And we hugged, manly hugs, and we kissed,  father/son kisses, and he made me feel good.

Much love.

    And I'll bet he had a damn fine voice, too. The apple never falls far from the tree.

    I dreamed last night about my Dad and my favorite grandmother. And it made me happy, not sad.

    I'm glad your boy found you...I bet he watches over you daily. x

    UB; I may not be the best singer, but I do love singing, and this is something I pass on to my kids. Do what you love, what you are passionate about. You don't have to be the best, just do your best, and enjoy it. It may take some time for them to realise what their true love is, but they will get there in the end. They have my full support.

    (I miss the boy I never knew.) :¬)

    hope; I don't believe in a god, but I do believe we are always here, all of us, even when we go. He (my son) has brought me so much calm this week, a very troublesome week for me. I have never had this dream before, so, something is definitely trying to put me at ease, and I am. :¬)

    What a lovely dream to be having! And often enough that you are getting to know him and love him more than ever. That's a wonderful thing, hon!!! You deserve the calmness he's bringing you. And the love we all send to you here. xoxoxo

    I'm betting that he has a better hair style than his da.
    A good friend has three daughters but his youngest is his son---she is the sweetest girl but not so feminine and girly as the older two.
    Funny, I just thought of another mate with three daughters and his youngest is the one who wants to do everything with her dad
    But I'm sure all of your girls are their dad's babes
