Happy Halloween

You were Cinderella for Halloween, obviously. I thought you were going to hate the dress once you figured out that you couldn't move in it the way that you are used to, but of course I was wrong. Once I put that dress on you, you were a whole new person! "Momma takeda pitcher ov me!" We went to Olivia's house again this year and I was struck by how pure you are. There is no editing when it comes to the people you love, there is no fear, even from the spookiest houses. You just want to see what makes them spooky and why. You are my joy and always will be and I love to live through you and the experiences that I have forgotton as I have grown. After all the trick-or-treating was done you, Ella, Liam, and Olivia all lay sprawled on Jennifer's floor watching a movie. Each one of you struggling to keep your eyes open to watch the end of the movie, a feat which none of us are sure of, considering all of the sugar that was consumed over the courese of the evening! Either way you woke up as you always do ready for the day and whatever comes next, and I find myself thinking that I'm ready too...
