Dreams, Imagination, or Both?

Tonight at dinner, our conversation went as follows:
Oliver: Mommy back.
Mark/Lindsay: Mommy's back?  Where did Mommy go?
Oliver: On a horse. [We definitely live in Texas!]
*Not sure if this came from a dream, his imagination, or a combination of both, but definitely interesting since it seemed to come out of no where.
Mark: What kind of horse, a brown horse or Rody?
Oliver: A brown horse.
Mark: Was the horse dry or wet?
Oliver: The horse was dry.
Mark: Did she go on the grass or on the road?
Oliver: On the grass.
Mark: Where did she go on the horse?
Oliver: To see Aunt Julianne and Tytus. [Witten will eventually make it into the story :)]

We have a "story-telling" game that we play where we ask one another to tell a story about two things (a dog and the beach, a front-end loader and a pile of dirt, etc.).  It is fun to see what Oliver comes up with!
