Visions of little redheads...

None of these visions have been mine. Which I find interesting. One of the best things about having a redheaded husband is the likelihood of having redheaded children. Which I am ecstatic about. I even feel sorry for any child we have who doesn't have red hair. I feel sorry for that kid because I'm very bad at hiding how I feel. I'll let you connect the dots on that one. So back to those visions.

My brother called today and let me know that his better half had a dream. In her dream, we had a little redheaded girl. Apparently, if someone dreams that you have a child, then it's some sort of premonition that you are soon to have a child. And they think you're pregnant. Which is not the case. But this isn't the first time I've gotten a call when someone's had a dream. Last year my best friend called to report that she dreamed I was pregnant. She didn't call simply to report her dream, but to see if her dream was right. I've had lots of crazy dreams, but I don't go around calling people to test my nightly prophetic powers. But apparently, when you dream some has or will soon have a baby, it's real. Talk about Old Wives Tales at it's finest.

But I'm hoping there is some prophetic power in these dreams. Namely that when we do have children, that they are blessed with a full shock of red hair. I mean, I've been in love with red hair since, like forever. I remember this one girl from my elementary school had long, lovely, deeply red hair..... and her name was RUBY. Jealous much? You betcha.
