No costume...

Well all Halloween festivities are over! We had fun! Carlos had a bake sale at work so I made him an eyeball cake and it sold for $12! Yeah! We had our friends, the Acosta's, and Sarah and Marlon over last night. We ate dinner, then the 'boys' took the little girls out trick-or-treating, while we women stayed home and talked and passed out candy. A lot of people didn't have costumes on, they were just going around getting candy! Sarah had the idea of putting up a sign that said "No costume, No Candy!" That would have been funny! LOL The girls had a lot of fun but stayed out too late, wanted to eat thier candy and we wouldn't let them, which led to a lot of kicking and screaming! (which actually is a regular occurance now for Elaine!) But after a lot of struggle, and then some calming down and love, they went to bed.
One good thing might come out of Halloween being over...maybe Miriam won't be afraid of all empty rooms and dark spaces and actually be able to spend her day without being right by my side!
