I often dream about my family. More often than not, the dreams revolve around the passing of my wife and son. Last night my dreams allowed me to relive a much happier memory.
My wife, my son and I were driving home from a 4th of July celebration. I asked my son to keep a close eye on the moon. Just as my father had done many years before, I told Dean that I could make the moon follow us all of the way home. As we drove along my son watched and was amazed as the moon appeared to follow us on our journey home and just as I had done many years before, he asked... "Daddy, how did you do that!?!"
Many times, my dreams about my family leave me feeling a bit broken and empty but I awoke from last nights dream feeling rested and peaceful.
