navigating the fantasy/reality line with toddlers...

Little Guy wakes up from his nap yesterday...

LG: "Me. Haff. Bad. Dream."
ME: Aww.. you had a bad dream?
LG: "Ya."
ME: What was your dream about?
LG: (pause...) "Tigers!" (makes clawing hand motions)
ME: Oh, no... tigers? Were they SCARY tigers?
LG: "Ya."
ME: Oh no. Were they chasing you?
LG: (pause...) "No, Daddy... It was a DREAM."


Right. Of course. How silly of me.
