Jonty's dream

On the way back from Chiang Mai this evening, we saw a rainbow. Great excitement. Almost crashed the Mu7 trying to get Emily to have a better view. But, that's not what this entry is about....

Jonty told me that he had a dream and that he had been meaning to tell me about. He said he had this dream when Nick was in Bangkok (I remember the first day Nick was away Jonty told me that he was feeling "anxious" - he had been told that he was the man of the house now, poor kid).

Anyway, he dreamed that he went up to heaven, but that he was still on earth, and that God spoke to him. God said to him "You are my son. You are my child". He told me that God said that he must stay on the earth, but that he must not be afraid as He (i.e. God) would always be with him. And God said that whenever Jonty saw a rainbow he must remember that and that there would always be rainbows. Everyday.

Awesome! I got shivers down my spine. The way that he told it was so special too - not just like a kid rambling, it was almost like someone quoting scripture. Very bold. Very authorative. Very confidently.

Unfortunately Emily brought us all back down to earth with her so-called dream. Here goes:
She dreamed she went to up to pink heaven, but was still on pink earth. A pink god told her that she was a pink son, there would be a pink rainbow and that she should not be scared. Hoo boy.

P.S. Found a silly photo of them playing a silly game pretending to be asleep - Emily in a PINK dress. It seemed appropriate.
