Nightmares
It seems almost every TV show I've seen since giving birth to you has involved some kind of injured or murdered baby. But it wasn't until I got my beloved People Magazine last week that I began having nightmares. The story was about twin boys who have some horrible heart condition. One of them received a transplant and the story ends. What I couldn't get over was the sidebar detailing where he got his new heart. Apparently the donor heart came from a 4-month-old who was accidentially smothered by a pillow during nap time.
I knew as I read the article that I shouldn't have been reading the article, but I couldn't tear myself away from it. Thus followed two nights of waking up in a panic to check on you. I seem to have moved past the nightmares with only a few short-term side effects (a cranky disposition for a few days and a sore backside from hours of sitting in your rocking chair watching you sleep), but I can't help but think this is just the first of several nightmare episodes I'll have about you.
Why can't People Magazine just focus on the important stories, like an in-depth investigative report on why Nick and Jessica split?

Totally. I made the mistake of watching the bird flu movie. I am now more frightened than ever of made-for-TV movies. I fear for my child.
