At 3 am, my son came crawling into bed with me saying he had just had a bad dream. He was a little teary about it so of course I said sure.
This morning after waking him up to get ready for school, I asked him what was the dream about. This is what he told me. Keep in mind he is 6.
I was playing with my 2 friends Joe and Pete at my Nana's. There was a sign saying not to go into the forest. It said "Keep out! Elves!"
And then I looked over and all these spears started to come out of the sandbox. Like 50. And then a bunch of elves came out of the sandbox too. They grew out of it like trees. They had funny red and green hair.
They were mean and scary elves and tried to kill everyone. But then the Navy and the Army showed up and there was a big battle. The Navy and the Army killed most of the elves bt there was one left. There was a HUGE battle with the last elf and then he died. But when he died then a million more came out of the sandbox again. The Navy and Army guys started to cry and I was really scared.
Freud would have a field day with this. The elves represent his anger at his height. The army and navy represent his love of me, the authority figure. The spears are of course a phallic symbol.
I just think my kid is weird. Screw Freud.
