I wish I had done that when he was born so I would have spent more time with him by now…

I dreamt of taking a ride in his bike sitting behind him with fear yet holding his shoulder with pride…
I dreamt of admiring him with spikes, as a hippy, trendy, and stylish as he grew…
I dreamt of helping him with recipes when he would be in hostel trying to cook for him…
I dreamt of watching him receive his degree on his graduation day…
I dreamt of capturing a picture while he & his friends would throw their graduation caps up in the air…
I dreamt of the day he gets an offer for a job…
I dreamt of rejoicing the moment he would get his first paycheck…
I dreamt that he would open his car door for me to sit beside him and that I would wave to our neighbors…
I dreamt of the day he would sign for his first acting role…
I dreamt of seeing him on the television acting in different roles…
I dreamt of watching him on the big screen sitting with strangers, who would whistle and applaud when he appears for the first time…
I dreamt of listening to him sing his favorite song during our moonlight dinners…
I dreamt of twisting his ears upon finding out that he has fallen in love…
I dreamt of conveying and convincing his daddy to let him marry the one he loves…
I dreamt of seeing him blush when we would tease him with his fiancé…
I dreamt of making a list of ‘things to do’ and people to invite for his wedding…

I dreamt of that moment when he would tell me that he is soon going to be a dad…
I dreamt of that day when I would hold my grandchild in my arms, and quietly check what is it…a boy or a girl?!…
I dreamt of announcing to the world that I am a proud grandma…
I dreamt of the day when my grandchild would call me ‘Paati’
I dreamt of hugging him every now and then with my head on his chest and tell ‘I love you, son’…
I dreamt of leaning over his shoulder whenever I would be in blue…
I dreamt of holding his hand while my knees would no longer balance my weight…
I dreamt of dying in his arms with a drop of his tears falling on my cheek…
I wish he was there to make my dreams come true…
