A dream I had....

I had a vivid dream a about four weeks ago, right after the birth of my son Oliver. It was a Sunday afternoon, while taking a nap, I dreamed that I was taking a nap and awoke to my phone ringing. I answered it and it was your Dad. He was so happy to talk to me and asked how the baby was and how I was doing. We talked about Oliver for a bit and he asked how everyone else was doing. I always remember him calling me Jenny. and he said "Hey Jenny, guess what? I have some news too." I said what, tell me. And he said "Raechel is going to have another baby!" and I said "Really! That is great news! When is she due?" And in my dream at that exact moment, I remember thinking in my head "Wait a minute.....how can I be speaking with Uncle Raymond? He died." and as soon as I thought that his voice became garbled and started breaking up when he was answering me as to when Raechel was due. and I said "Uncle Raymond! I cant understand you! You are breaking up!" Wait come back!" and his voice just faded away. I and woke up immediately and thought wow! That was wierd. It was so neat to hear his voice. It was so clear and I knew immediately in the dream it was him on the phone. B/c he said "Hey Jenny, how are you doing?" when I answered the phone. Anyways.....I dont know if my dream means anything or not but I felt compelled to call Raechel right away. Like he wanted me to tell her. So I tried calling her to tell her. So now, four weeks later I now had to write it in an email but I think she got the gist. I really wish I had gotten her that minute when I woke up, b/c I was so excited to tell her. It was like I has actually just gotten off the phone with him! It was so great to hear his voice.

Since that dream four weeks ago, I have had two other dreams just in the last week about Uncle Ray. I dont remember the details as much as the dream above but I know I dreamt of him because when I would awake, I would say, wow, I dreamt about Uncle Raymond again. It got me thinking, why? I have no idea when his birthday is, but I thought today, it must be in October and I was thinking the 16th in my head. Is that right? If it is, it would be a total guess and he put the thought in my head. Happy Birthday, Uncle Ray.
