Is Halloween over? Where did the time go? That's the most common question of my life. Who took my little babies away and replaced them with these big kids, who raced from house to house yesterday in their attempt to fill their buckets to the point where they could no longer carry them? We had another holiday full of fun memories and candy - what could be better? Gone are the days of pushing one or the other in a stroller from door to door. These two masters of the night can now TWICK o TWEET like experts!
It's funny sometimes when you're a parent. The little holidays feel so bittersweet. If only one could hold time in a bottle - or maybe a glittery Halloween pumpkin. The real pumpkins have slowly turned to a messy squash and the costumes put away - likely forever. Harvest time is over and now the big holidays are ramping up. I just enjoyed savoring the fun moments this year - the excitment over the SPOOKY! ghosts (that Aidan insists says MOOOO! - a cow ghost?) fake spider webs, costumes and excitment. I loved the fact that Brigid wanted to be a witch this year instead of a princess. I think she sees princess things as like so totally 4 year old, like, ya know? She wants to go out there and show the world her badness!
And little Aidan The Builder, with his tool belt and hard hat. He's going to be our little fixer. There's always something to fix around our place, and he's the man. Most likely he broke it anyway.
Nothing better than taking a break after a long night of candy mongering. Naptime is wherever and whenever it decides to hit. Peacful little angels for once.
