hubs and i talked like 'partners' in a team yesterday, not like individuals within a house. it was wonderful. why can't we do this all the time. talk peacefully. no name calling. listening. understanding. not disagreeing. not agreeing, but not intentionally disagreeing. nice quiet voices. like the old days.

until we heard mboy scream like a banshee, this was around 1:00a. i have never heard him scream like that. he must have had nightmare. only me laying next to him reassured him. nothing else. i could not step away to turn lights off...until he fell asleep so soundly...each time before that he would wake up crying every time i pulled away. what the heck to babies have nightmares about? what would scare them so much?

maybe too many scary slide rides? :)
