One of my favorite movies is Harvey w/Jimmy Stewart. Basically he was this guy whose best friend was an imaginary friend who was a giant bunny. You never saw the bunny but you really could picture it.
Anyhow I wish Harm's invisible friend was a bunny. Harmon's is a crazy man. This started a few months ago before we moved. He woke up upset. I asked him why and he said this crazy man was trying to come through his bedroom window and scaring him. The old house was in an undeveloped sub-division and there were no crazy men coming through windows so I chucked it off to the boogey-man or monster under the bed.
So yesterday he wouldn't nap. I just let him stay in his room and have some quiet time. Well I overhear him having this very intense conversation. I go in there and ask him who he is talking to. He explains that the crazy man is there and they are talking. I later that night asked him if this was the man in the window and he said yes, it is his friend.
So my son has an invisible friend who is a crazy old man... Jimmy do you have your old bunny laying around anywhere???? If so please send him to our home.

Honestly, that would scare me. I mean, after the Elizabeth Smart thing, if my son or daughter said there was a crazy man looking in their window, I would immediately have them sleep in my bed. Seriously, even reading that creeped me out. On another not so scary note, I often wonder if the imaginary friends of children really are imaginary, or if we just can't see them? I mean, they are much more in touch with all things spiritual. And when babies look past you, and stare at a spot, I wonder who they are seeing.
