Happy Halloween!

I was surprised to discover that Madi wanted to wear her costume. During its construction, she threw a fit when we tried to measure it or try it on her. She even wanted me to paint her face - and she held still for me to put two french braids in her hair! She wanted her nose painted too, so I let her do that part all by herself.



I told her clowns make people laugh. She thought that if she laughed that would make others laugh. Smart kid because it worked - even if it was a fake laugh.



Dancin to "Ghostbusters" at our church Trunk or Treat. In the car on the way home, she reminded us that we were to call, "Ghostbusters!"



Round two of Halloween was spent trick or treating with some friends in their neighborhood. She even wanted to wear her costume again.



Now to just get rid of all the candy so I can stop making her cry by telling her she has to eat something healthy before she has any more candy...
