terror

Ivy had the WORST nightmare EVER last night. She woke up in the middle of the night screaming that blood-curdling scream and tried to get as far away from the wall of her bed as possible. (She sleeps on the top bunk so that means she would have eventually jumped or fallen off her bed.) When I got her out of her bed, she was trembling and shaking uncontrolably. It was the most scared I had ever seen ANYONE. I brought her over to my bed to talk about it and calm her down. Her nightmare was about Cruella deVille from the movie 101 Dalmatians (the one with the real people in it...not the cartoonish movie) trying to get her. We had watched that movie as a family a few days ago, and this was the first result of it. AND, because Ivy's scream was so shrilly, it ended up waking everyone up in the house. Of course, Nathan had to be away at training. So, Ivy, Owen, and Letty were in bed with me that night and Gramma Z. (who was now up to help in Nate's absence) joined us to keep all of the kids in bed safely.

Can you guess what family won't be watching that movie any time soon or any movie with real-life villains in them???
