Costume of the Week
Maddie has been talking about Halloween costumes since April. She is a girl after my own heart and can't wait for fall time to decorate and to help put the tree up for Christmas. The funny part is the frequent changes in what she actually wants to be for Halloween. Here is the list...
First it was Alice (from Alice in Wonderland). I almost looked for a costume on ebay but decided to wait just in case she changed her mind.
Then came Dinah (Alice's cat). Then she wanted to be the Cheshire Cat.
Then it was a pirate with a hook, but she was very specific that she did not want to wear hat or bandanna. This one came on very randomly one day. She was in the middle of a sentence and switched her thought part way through to tell me she wanted to be a pirate for Halloween. This was back in May. There were no pirates around anywhere. She is so funny... and random.
Then I believe it was a tulip fairy, which she was for her second Halloween at 1.5 years old.
And the latest desire for a costume..... a band-aid. Yes, a band-aid. But she wants to be a band-aid with characters on it.
I am sure there will be a new desire for a costume next week. Stay tuned.
