A Midsummer Night's Hallucination

Last night, after collapsing into a salsa-induced coma, I dreamed that the baby came early. He had strawberry red hair and blue eyes, and was already old enough to try standing on wobbly legs mere hours after returning home from the hospital. We also put him down for a nap on the stairs, and I was teaching him to talk.

I told Julie this morning about the red-headed baby in my dream, and she said "No! No red hair!" Of course, she needn't worry; her dominant native genes will most probably preclude the possibility of having a fair-haired (or fair-skinned, or even fair-eyed) baby. But I can still dream, can't I?
