Christine speaking again, because this is the only time I can get a word in edgewise with 'HE Who Rules the Roost'.
Please sshhh now... because Ted Bear Esq. is sleeping. Don't be fooled by the eyes wide open - that's the way he rests... truly!
But his slow and steady breathing are the give-away. That, and the gentlest of snores... but don't tell him that.
Because I know him so well after all these years we've shared, I can hazard the best guess about what he's dreaming of. It's his adopted family - the Small Knitty Gritty Kids. He's feeling quite disturbed because they are restless... and upset... and pouting quite a bit.
They want a bit of that stardust/stardom treatment, just like Ted. And so they take over his dreams... and I think I feel another book coming on - the one about the -
BORN AGAIN... SMALL KNITTY GRITTY KIDS.
Watch out. I think they're coming soon.
But definitely it's Good Night from him and it's Good Night from me... for now.
