When I was pregnant with Son #1, he came to me in a dream.
Son #1: "Is there anything I need to know before I'm born?"
Me: "Just remember where you are right now. Somehow, after you're born, you forget."
Me: "Speaking of which, what are you doing right now?"
Son #1: "Just playing with my little brother."
I awoke the next morning amazed that we had connected in that way and shocked to boot: I'm having two boys?? I thought I was going to have girls! Oh nooooooooo!
In retrospect, it's been a huge blessing. To quote the Rolling Stones, you get what you need. But now who's going to go shopping with me when I'm 80? I guess that's what girlfriends are for.
