Your first name? Are you serious!?

I felt like this π last night soon after going to bed, when Dorry sat up, and looking intently at my desk chair, asked in a frightened voice, "What's that?!". Our mom was in the room and told her there was nothing there. She replied that she saw a cat "or something" jump on the chair. Our cats were not there and we could see nothing. This morning she remembered nothing. π

She talks in her sleep a lot. Most of the time it is amusing, but I have been awakened at 2 in the morning before to her yelling my name in a terrified (and terrifying!) voice. The last time she did that she informed me that someone fell outside our back door! π€£

When did that start?
Ruth wrote: "Meg, When did that start?"
She's talked in her sleep since she was maybe 10? She even started to sleepwalk one time, many years ago. I asked her where she was going. That woke her up, and she said she didn't know! At the time we had our beds side by side and she also woke me up one night by pulling my hair and shaking my head. After that I moved our beds apart! π€£

Oh wow! I used to sleep walk when I was little too... But I grew out of it. π
That's smart! π€£
Allyson and I have always shared a room, and when we were little, she used to get up during the night and turn our bedroom light on and then go back to bed. And she wouldn't remember it either! I eventually learned every time she got up, I would pull my blanket over my head! π€£π€£
Yeah, I'm glad I outgrew that!! I also talked in my sleep a lot. Once while we were sleeping with friends of ours!!π So embarrassing!
Emma, didn't I get up in the middle of the night one time, turn the bathroom light on (leaving the door open), and brush my teeth?
Allyson wrote: "Emma, didn't I get up in the middle of the night one time, turn the bathroom light on (leaving the door open), and brush my teeth?"Yep you sure did. ππ€¦π»ββοΈπ
Another time (when we had bunk beds) I guess I was hollering and hollering that I couldn't find my ladder and I needed down so one of my sisters finally got up and came over to help me down. Once down I'm told I gave her a hug and went right back up.π She wasn't too happy!
