Clouded Dream

Cartoons! Don't we associate it with humour, creativity and imagination? Well what beats our imagination is how our little ones are associating, interpreting and understanding this stream. My four year old, who loves cartoons (who doesnt?) was screaming 'Run, run' aloud in his sleep. When he woke up, i asked him about his dream and he said, ' There was a volcano, and i was running away,
did you see?'

I said ' It was your dream, how could i have seen it?'
He waved his hands over this head and asked ' Didn't you see it over my head?'
Puzzled and unsettled i said ' the dream happens in your mind, others cannot see it'
'Yes, you can' he replied.
Bewildered by his conviction i questioned ' What makes you think so?'
Came his reply, ' Dont you remember we saw it on tv? When tom has a dream, a
cloud appears over his head and we can see tom chasing Jerry inside the cloud!!?? .........'
