I open my eyes and see the shadowy figure of a man outside my tent by my bed. Then I hear my kids screaming for help at the tent entrance. I start panicking trying to move. I can't. I look over and see My husband sleeping with his arm around me still. I realize its a dream, but if you have kids you understand the feeling that washed over my whole body. I start trying to scream but it is like my mouth is glued shut. My kids are still screaming begging for me to help them. I'm paralyzed once again. I keep trying to scream "Wake up! Wake up! It's just a dream! Wake up!"
