"Every second brings a fresh beginning, every hour holds a new promise, every night our dreams can bring hope and every day is what you choose to make it."

Last night I had a dream that I called The Compound, and was chatting with the kids. Jess was down stairs finishing getting ready for the day, and the kids were entertaining me with their conversations. What was spectacular about said dream was I talked for about five minutes, then there was a tap on the door while Kieran was telling me a story, Jess hollered up to Kieran to grab the door for her, and when he opened it I was there on the other side talking to him on my cell phone.

Kieran and Violet cried in their excitement, and despite their size and age Violet was determined to stay in my arms. Liam was excited too, but in his very Liam way. He was quiet, and we got in our good hellos, and snuggles, but it was sans affection at first as he warmed back up to me.

And, Jess was just so excited. I had her laughing the entire time I was at The Compound, which was only a day in dreamland. We ate, and cooked, and walked around the backyard as I watched her point her hose at different spots in the Earth as she excitedly told me what plants would be erupting from that spot. I did things around the house that she was waiting for me to come take care (this doesn't seem too far fetched, because there are certain things I rather take care of, regardless of me not being a legal owner of The Compound), and after we got the kids to sleep I hung out on the sofa with Jessie, eating Breyer's.

I woke up back in my apartment. And, things are the way they are meant to be.

The dream left me feeling really happy in my heart, and reminding me that things are so good.

Slowly my life here is growing. Getting here May 2014 was like planting a seed, and roots are starting to grow, and as Spring slowly approaches I feel my life coming together, and it's only a matter of time before budding, and blooming.
