I’m heading home soon and awaiting a decision by my daughter - what will she be tonight for Halloween? She’s nearly 4, and very indecisive on this critical matter. Last weekend we attended a Halloween party with friends and as we went through my daughter’s enormous collection of dressup clothes, she wandered to her brother’s room and picked out the Spider-Man costume he wore last year. So, that night, 20 minutes before we were to leave, I found myself with needle and thread on my kitchen floor trying to hike up the costume by 4 inches. She looked adorable.
So last night I asked her what she plans to do tonight. First, “Mom, I’m going to be a princess.” Then, spying a cowboy hat and vest in the dressup basket she announced, “No, I’m going to be a cowboy.” This morning, I went to get the costumes in order before I left the house (my son is easy - he’s a Power Ranger), she announced, “I want to wear my angel costume!”
She’s a mischieveious little one. I wonder if the halo will fit. Here I go to find out. Happy Halloween!
