My 5 year old goes missing.

It’s the early morning, and my wife Katie is hungry. I grab my daughter Cassidy and head off to the mall to grab a bite to eat. The mall is the biggest ever and stretches more then 1 mile long along the beach. One of the most famous restaurants is located in the mall. I place my order at the famous restaurant. While waiting on my order, Cassidy and I make our way down towards the beach to check out the water. While walking towards the beach we pass a beautiful fountain. The mall goes from being an inside place to an outside place with a hotel located off to the side of the mall. A large parking garage is located at the end of the mall near the water. We go through a door when suddenly I notice Cassidy is no longer by my side. I start to freak out and back track my steps to the restaurant. The restaurant starts giving me problems regarding my order. The waitress who helped with the order had promised a free meal but didn’t advise we would have to purchase a certain type of appetizer. I start complaining about the order and insist they change it to what I wanted. They give me some problems and I end up locating the manager of the restaurant. He helps me out by providing discounts on my bill and even gives me a second order free of charge. I’m still without my daughter and make my way back to the beach to find her. When I get back to the parking garage it appears different then before and I couldn’t take the same path as before. I find myself at the top of the parking garage were over 70 missing kids are located. I call out for Cassidy and someone mentions knowing a kid by that name. A little girl who was not my own comes up to me in tears. “This is not my daughter,” I tell the lady. At a loss for words, I start to freak out. I call Katie on my phone to tell her the bad news of our missing daughter when suddenly I spot a small girl coloring on a paper on the ground. I call out Cassidy and she turns around, screams “daddy,” and runs to me with a big hug. Awake

That sounds like a pretty intense dream! Nice happy ending though, which is rare for a lot of people. It seems strange that you had such a long episode at the restaurant even after realising your daughter was missing - perhaps that part of the dream simply slipped your mind for a bit while the emotionally-charged bill-situation escalated. The 70 missing kids part is also interesting. Could you see their faces? It would be interesting to know whether if it was just a general crowd of children or if they were all individually distinguishable. Coupled with the wrong child being given to you initially, it could suggest your thinking of your daughter's uniqueness. You may have been thinking recently about how special and important she is to you and your wife, more so than any other child. Despite the obvious traumatic experience of this dream, I'd consider it to be a very good one, representing the deep love you have for your daughter.

You are absolutely correct about the restuaraunt. I think the situation involving my daughter was forgotten for the moment and in the dream, I came to the realization my daughter was still missing. As for the 70 kids, that's just an estimate. It was more of a group of children like you described. The only face I could distinguish was the girl who wasn't my daughter. I don't recognize her though in the real world. I believe this dream occurred because my 5 year old became jelous last night of her baby sister and told us she wanted to die an live in a fairy tale. I think by her expressing that to me I held a contcious thought of her all night.

I think by her expressing that to me I held a contcious thought of her all night. I think you're right, the dream definitely shows themes of being lost and forgotten, as well as the overriding idea that she'll never be replaced.
