Very happy
That we were drama free
Tear free
Temper tantrum free
On this Halloween night
And WE WENT TRICK OR TREATING!!!!
My aunt
Blessed my socks off by
Inviting us over for lasagna dinner
(Seriously - a HUGE blessing!!!)
Then the girls got dressed
And we hit her neighborhood
The girls took turns ringing the door bells
I LOVE how polite and friendly
They both were
(That's not me - that's their mom!)
Without reminders, prompts, or nudges.
With
Tired feet
Full bags
Thirsty mouths
I put them in the car
And ran back into my aunt's
To steal two water bottles
Then with
Grateful hearts
We made house visits to
My cousin
And then
Miss Patty,
Their favorite,
And then off to
Mrs. Pooler's house
For some more spoiling.
It was fun to listen in to their sister talk
It was fun to watch them in action
It was fun to see them being kids
Carefree
Happy
Enjoying each others' company
Enjoying the night

I spent Halloween
Watching TV
On my couch
With the porch lights off
Like I have every Halloween for the past 10+ years
I'll take this Halloween
And even the days leading up to it
Any day
Any time
Any way
I love my life
And am praising God for His calling on my life
Truly
I am humbled by His allowing me this opportunity.
PS - Trick or treating in Arizona is WAY better than in Michigan. People actually sit outside and pass out candy. No coats, layers, or winter jackets are required to make the event enjoyable/bearable.
Prayer Requests:
Continued patience, wisdom, and understanding for me with the girls.
