You know how you start at one point on the internet and end up going from here to here to here … and end up somewhere you have no idea how you got there? Yeah, me too.
That’s what just happened to me. I ended up at an on-line magazine for Mormons “LSD Living”, and saw this article about really cute Halloween costumes for little kids.
I remember always trying to find some new, creative ideas for costumes when my children were small.
So for you who still have small children, here is a link to that idea-filled article:

I have fond memories of Halloween when I was a little kid.
We were very generic back then. I especially liked this costume because it meant I got to wear lipstick. Wahoo!!
I’m guessing you have some great memories of costumes you wore too — and are making some great costumes and memories for your own children.
From the past-raising-kids side of things, I can tell you that any work or inconvenience you dedicate to making memories for your children, you will be soooo glad you did it when they are grown and gone.

What a cute little girl you were. I love seeing these old pictures. The furniture, lamps, draperies, etc. are all so much like what I grew up with. By the way, what’s in the tray you’re carrying…cigarettes?
In my country, we don’t celebrate Halloween, so I don’t have any memories of this sort… Could you write a little bit more about this? It sounds really interesting!
Thank you so much for the beautiful card and sweet note, Sandy! Sending you a Christmas hug, and blessings from above.
Merry Christmas!! : )
