All tagged where are all the children
I can see Justin waiting for the exact right second.
It’s been a day for those in the waking world since the kids rode the flying elephants and since Justin decided it was time Joy somehow meet girls her age.
Madelyn appeared first. She rolled down the ramp to the shore of the small island of our small suburban home. After a few nice hellos, we helped her off the wheelchair. On her two arms she went into the sea and began swimming.

Charlie has been on the flying elephant for a good fifteen minutes now. The elephant is flying right above the deck, just the way it was before Charlie fell and woke up.
Madelyn leaves for another corner of Justin’s dream to have her own dream. She takes Amahle with her, to leave at another corner of Justin’s universe and have her own dream.
“You can do it! You can do it!” Joy cheers him on from below.

It turns out it’s not that easy to get off flying elephants.
Justin returns, all smiles, just as Joy and Charley want to get back to Bonny’s Revenge, but the elephants’ wings prevent them from getting too close to the deck of Bonny’s Revenge while we’re all flying among the clouds.
No one’s really worried. Justin or Charley could just summon something up. Amahle and Madelyn, who have joined our dream in the meantime, could do the same. And Joy has the jetpack in case all Dreamers disappear. But the kids want to find a way to jump off.

“Charlie! Charlie!” Justin calls out.
“Just a second, Joy’s Dad!”
Joy and Charlie pull the flying elephants’ ears softly, then pull the left one only. The elephants slow in mid-air, then make a U-turn to the left. Justin, helming Bonny’s Revenge, stops the warship in mid-air.
“Dad, we’re busy!” Joy says.

Charlie and Joy are still riding the flying elephants. Following from behind on Bonny’s Revenge, Justin is lost in thought, and Suzy’s and my attention turn to him completely. Master Mind, next to us, watches over the kids.
“Um…How do I do that exactly?” Justin says.

Charlie and Joy are riding flying elephants today. Justin helms Bonny’s Revenge next to them, just in case. Master Mind, the dutiful chaperone, as always watches over Joy’s safety, also from Bonny’s Revenge. Suzy and I came to watch. It’s not every day you see your grandchild ride a flying elephant.
Suzy holds my hand tightly and enjoys the view. She loves it when dreams are beautiful.
