Sleepy ESP

So, last night, Steve sent me a text around 1:30 am to tell me that he wasn't finished with the job he was working on and so he wouldn't be leaving to come home until today (he is in Colorado)(he was going to try to drive home last night, crazy I know). Anyhoo. I read the text and then I thought, in my head, not out loud, "Shoot, I didn't set my alarm and Lori (my neighbor) is going to be waiting for me to walk in the morning and I will still be asleep". So I quickly set the alarm on my phone. I no sooner set it, it was literally still in my hand, than Addy started screaming and crying in her room upstairs.

Now, I have to tell you, Addy is a total momma's girl. She is practically attached to my hip (except when she is being naughty). She freaks out if I go anywhere without her. And she has the same nightmare that wakes her up at least once a week, if not more. In her nightmare, I am leaving to go somewhere without her. She wakes up crying thinking that I am leaving or have left to go somewhere.

So when I got to her room to see what she was crying about she said, "Why are you leaving?" And I said, "I'm not leaving, I was asleep in bed." And she said, "Yes you are going with Lori!" I assured her that I was not going anywhere except back to sleep in my bed and she kept crying saying, "You are going with Lori! I don't want you to go with Lori!"

So I'm sitting there, trying to comfort her, wide eyed thinking to myself, "Did this kid just read my mind in her sleep?"


Weird.
