Last year was Mia's first "Trick or Treat." Thinking back, she was supposed to be Tinkerbell. Technically she was Tinkerbell inside of our house. Outside, she was quickly shoved into a flower sleeper. I remember looking out the window and seeing our neighbors in costumes with a table on their porch and asking them why so early?? Not early at all, Trick or Treat had started!!! Holy smokes. Shoving two kids in costume, loading up our Halloween bowl with 300 treats (not a typo!) and running down the street while calling my sister and telling her to drive to my house, FAST.
Fast forward one year later. My sweet little ladybug. Our school had trick or treat for toddlers and infants during the day in the administration building. Very nice, tons of candy, friendly faces . . .Mia sometimes looks at me like you're kidding right? Who are these people? She tore off her ladybug wings and cried. She was delighted that someone opened a pack of M&M's - ate one and said home.
Needless to say her six year old brother could not get enough of Trick or Treat. This was the very FIRST time his dad took him trick or treating!!! As they left the front porch I heard Curt say do you need that light saber - seriously? Then he proceeds to say, We're going Sab, this way, RELAX! Ahh, the bliss of me, passing out M&M's and watching Dora with Mia PRICELESS!
