When Dreams Come True

Oh, my the things that happen when I'm not watching. I posted this a while ago and forgot about it. Now, this evening, I was scrolling through old blog posts and came across it. What amazed me is how popular it was. I'll let you read through it but be informed this is old news. The books are already out, and there's ebooks available also. 
Note: Emily and Alice are twins that were separated as newborns.

I dreamed I had a twin, Mommy.

Alice was just a little girl but she had always wished to have a sister
"just her size." Sometimes she even dreamed about it. Once her
dream was so vivid that Alice told her Mommy.
"I dreamed I had a twinnie, Mommy."
Alice didn't notice the uneasy look on her mother's face when she responded.
"Oh, was it a nice dream?"
"I'm not sure. In someways I liked it."
"Why wouldn't you like to dream that, honey?"
Alice's blue eyes filled with tears.
"I wish I had a twin, Mommy. I REALLY do."
Margaret's face grew pale but she kept her voice even. "Why don't you tell me about your dream,sweetheart."



"I dreamed we were shopping in Hal'fax an' I was lookin in the windows of a store--I think it was a toy store! And you know what! This little girl was lookin out of the win'ow at me! And you know what, Mommy? She looked jist like me! Jist like me!"
     "That was your reflection, honey."
    Alice grew thoughtful, then she shook her head vigourously. "No Mommy. She looked jist like me but she wasn't dressed like me. She had long, pretty braids, and I don't." She scuffed her navy and white oxford shoe against the ground. "An' Mommy, her dress was different."
  You'll find out more about Emily and Margaret in the book Two Mothers, Twin Daughters. It is available from www.marilynshistoricalnovels.com


P.S. I am (have!!) updating the book and it will be vastly improved! Just wait and see!!!
