Tonight at dinner, Isaac said, "Mom, the nights when I don't sleep very good, those nights are when I have a nightmare."
"Oh yeah?" I asked. Then Lucas said, "What is a nightmare, Buddy?"
With a puzzled look of contemplation, Isaac said, "I think its little bugs that come in your bed at night."
"What do they look like? Have you ever seen one of these bugs?"
"No," he said, "because I think they sneak into our beds when we're asleep."
Here comes Sebastian's 2 cents: "Well, I would guess that a nightmare is a bad dream."
LOL!! How funny! So Lucas went on to explain that nightmares are dreams that make us feel scared, and the boys proceeded to tell us dreams that they'd had (which, we could clearly tell they were making them up on the spot. Isaac's dream was about meteors falling and he was trying not to let one fall on his head. LOL).
After dinner, we turned on Alvin & the Chipmunks for a little down time (they've been cranked and crazy today...it is definitely an early bedtime night!), and it happened to be the part where Theodore has a nightmare and can't sleep, so he goes into Dave's room to sleep in his bed. Aaaah! So now I at least know what brought the subject up...but I just thought it was funny that Isaac thought nightmares are sneaky bed bugs.

It would be a nightmare to me if some bugs crawled into my bed!!! I'm with Isaac on that one! :-)
