One night, when I was about 4-5, I had a nightmare and I went into my parents room and I eventually fell asleep in their bed. I dreamed about flying. The next morning, lo and behold, I woke up in my own bed! I firmly believed that I could fly in my sleep and when I was told that my dad carried me back to my bed, I refused to believe it! I realised how silly this was a short time later.
