I'm was also widowed in 2012 and have been remarried for almost 3 years. I dream about my late husband too.

I also dream about my current husband. I have frequent dreams of all of them. Sometimes I'm even confused in my dream as to who I'm actually married to.

I really wouldn't worry about it. When you spend a good portion of your life with someone you are probably going to dream about them on occasion
