Everyday should be Halloween


After waking up from a sugar-induced comma I'm sure, my 9 year-old (step)son tells me this morning that "everyday should be Halloween." I mean, why wouldn't he want that. The great American tradition is all about everything we tell him NOT to do on a daily basis: DON'T take candy from a stranger, you CAN'T stay out after the street lights come on, you CAN'T stay up late on a school night, you CAN'T wear your pajamas out of the house (face it -- most of the costumes are glorified p.j.'s), DON'T make that scary face unless you want it to stay like that and DON'T eat too much candy! Bedlam, I tell you -- complete bedlam...

Love the costumes. Such cutey pies. Bet they had a great time. Oh,,,but the tummy aches from all that sugar. Too bad, they missed Uncle John's house. He ran out of candy early, so he was giving out healthy snack bars at the end. (lol) (:0)
