I awoke in the predawn darkness to a sobbing Tizzy standing at my bed.
"What is it honey? Did you have a bad dream?"
"Yes! I had a NIGHTMARE!"
"Oh, come here you, climb into bed. Do you want to talk about it?"
"I can't talk about it. It was too scary."
We lay in the dark, our arms wrapped around one another.
After a few minutes had passed, Tizzy let out a sigh and sat straight up in bed.
"I'm ready to talk about my dream."
"O.K. sweetie. What happened?"
He took a deep breath, paused and then said:
"I was dreaming I was watching The Dubba - Dubbies, (Teletubies) and every time it came to an end... (long pause)... It started over AGAIN!"

crimey, the poor kid!
How did you not laugh?
Oh believe me, I laughed!
Wow. That's awesome. You can't MAKE UP this stuff!
Ugh! That is the stuff nightmares are made of!
oh, that IS a nightmare!
So hilarious! I'm pretty sure I had the same nightmare for a solid two years when my oldest son was a toddler!
Scary!
that would scare me too
Love it!!! Especially since they do have that thing where they repeat the little "shows" at least twice. Gah! Glad we are clear of that show!!
that's the best thing i've read all day
Oh goodness. Now that IS a nightmare.
Oh that is one of my nightmares too. Poor kid.
Like Groundhog Day, but waaaay scarier!
Great. Now I won't be able to sleep for weeks! I will try to think happy and peaceful thoughts.... a blue sky.... sunshine... baby face in the sun...! NO! NO! Not again!!!
That is a nightmare!
Terrifying! Never ending Teletubbies. :)
omg! He's dreaming every parent's nightmare!
hahaha That totally cracked me up.
Did you tell him we all have that one?
Oh, god love him!
Oooh. That sounds like a nightmare that will continue right on into adulthood...
Ellie
AAAaaahhhhh!
The horror!
Tizzy, that is MY worst nightmare too! ;)
Sometimes it feels like that nightmare comes TRUE at our house when they dig out the Teletubbies video. Even playing it once feels like its never-ending. Poor Tizzy, I don't blame him for crying.
Sounds like a perfectly reasonable nightmare to me! I have the same one when forced to watch Telletubbies.
No kidding! That's about the worst nightmare I can think up!
Oh, that IS scary!!!
