I see you in my dreams daddy
Sometimes dreams are odd. Sometimes they are funny. Sometimes they bring comfort. They almost always give us a peek into what our mind is thinking when we are busy doing other things.
My dreams have been pretty vivid lately. I remember another time they were really strong and comforting…Almost 8 years ago.
As I have mentioned, my dad died unexpectedly 7+ years ago in a car accident. My hubby and I had just gotten engaged. I had told him just two weeks before the morning I got that phone call.
I was so sad my dad would not be around for my wedding…and everything to come in my life. He was gone so suddenly. No time to say good-bye or so many other things that needed to be said.
Over the next 4 months, the Lord graciously gave me dreams of my dad. I got to show him all the preparations for our wedding…and the dreams stayed with me until the wedding.
I don’t dream of him as often now, but the other night I dreamt of my dad. Talking to him. Telling him about my life. Being with my daddy.
Waking up was hard to do, but I am so thankful for the life I wake up to. Thankful that I have an amazing hubby beside me, and three fantastic children…and so much in my life. I wish my daddy could be here to see it; missing him won’t stop me from saying thank you.
