Halloween Happenings

Well, just like last year L. anxiously awaited Halloween night. Last year he was so excited to go trick-or-treating, however, as soon as he stepped out of the house and saw a little boy dressed as Spiderman he was done. He was so afraid he wanted to go home immediately. This year he has been talking about Halloween for quite a long time, and he decided he wanted to be Spiderman. I think it was his way of conquering his fears. We talked about how other children would be wearing costumes just like him and how it would be dark, but we would have a flashlight etc. etc. etc. . So the big evening finally arrived and...after one house it was back to the safety of the living room with Daddy!!
N. and K. continued on with Mommy and had a great time! Little K. was so cute saying "Happy Olloween" at each house we went to. N. did a great job walking up the driveways and choosing the candy he wanted. He remembered from last year that if he grabbed a whole fist full of candy instead of just one, almost everyone would say
"Oh he can keep it all, that's fine!" The little stinker, he doesn't even eat candy!
Well, we had a fun night and L. is already talking about what he is going to dress up as next year ("because I'll be brave next year, Mommy")!
