This morning I mentioned to Inigo that I had a nightmare last night and it scared me enough that I woke myself up with a sharp intake of breath. (Are you surprised that the nightmare involved a big black wolf?)
Without missing a beat, without being overly concerned or dramatic and in a very matter-of-fact voice (hand gestures included) Inigo offered me some sound advice:
"Mom, when I wake up like that from a nightmare, I just think of a world made out of chocolate and candy and I can go right back to sleep."
Ummmm......whose child is he?

Definitely sounds like my kind of world ; )
He is such a character.
And, no, I'm not surprised AT ALL that the nightmare would involve a big black wolf.
8 year-olds know everything.
If it were only that easy. I love it!!!
I bet that has saved you many nights of being awakened when he's had a bad dream! Who couldn't go right back to sleep with a world of chocolate and candy? What a cute kid!
But this is the kid that hates candy!
