Things that go bump in the night

Mason woke up last night from what I can only assume was a nightmare. He was crying and so disoriented, I just felt awful for him. He was trying to tell me, between his cries, something about daddy and a truck and something was gone...I really have no idea. Todd and I pieced together it must have been about him being left somewhere. Whatever it was was clearly awful for him. It was the first time in a long time that I held him and rocked him and he just let me. It was also one of those times where I'm not sure what else to do but cry a little with him.
