Are wrappers
And candy
But so far,
No mouse.
The pumpkins were craved
By the children
With care
In hopes that
Halloween night
Would soon be here
The children were nestled
All snug in their beds
While visions of
Butterfingers
Danced in their heads
And me in my jammies
And my eyes oh so tired
Aw - heck.
Here are the pictures.

| My 50s' girl and my Hippie at their school Pumpkin Walk on Friday night. I can't even begin to tell you how their choice in costumes COMPLETELY reflect their personalities. |
 |
| After three stores, we finally found some pumpkins! Then we came home to start the fun! |
 |
| She wanted to give up, several times, but preserved!!! |
 |
| Rough draft, the pencil it on, and then pray Maryann can crave it like you drew it out. |
 |
| Wait...this was always my dad's job. Surreal. |
 |
| Proud as punch. |
 |
| The original cat design was (thankfully!) replaced with a simple, classic design, much to the pleasure and delight of the knife-holding and carver. |
 |
| This foster-love mother HATES candles and was pleased to find blinking, battery-operated LED lights for the bottom of each pumpkin at Walmart while getting groceries today. The girls LOVED the effect and I love not having to worry about fire! |
Life is good. The girls are good. Their mom is good. I am good. Thank you, Jesus!!!
Prayer Requests:
It's another busy week on the calendar. Last week was the same and I got lax on the girls getting in bed at their normal schedule. Ms. O can handle that as she doesn't need much more than 7-8 hours of sleep, but Miss M - she needs that 10+ hours and it hit her big time on Friday night. Sometimes we just go, go, go that I don't mind staying up and chatting and laughing together, but I've got to keep the big picture in mind and how that lack of sleep effects her.
