Theo's Dream

(revealed over dinner of tortilla espanola, manchego, spinach and lemon, by candlelight)

"I had a dream, Mommy. I dreamed that Jennifer (his kindergarten teacher) took us all up in a hot air balloon. We went two at a time. First Zazi and Omeed. Then Forrest and Ondine. I was next. But then I woke up."

This following the (mostly) true story of the first hot air balloon flight in 1783 from Versailles, with a sheep, a duck, and a rooster. (that part is true!)
