Day 215
What a perfect night to practice one's commitment to be kind to strangers! Because we live in the country, every year we manage to wrangle an invitation from one of our friends to invite us to their neighborhood for trick or treating. This year K took pity on us by serving dinner and allowing us to roam the town with her. So we were in a neighborhood full of folks we didn't know.
It was an absolutely great evening walking around with our Ninja and Ghost Buster, talking to people out with their own ghosts and goblins. Much of the fun was commenting on the fabulous costumes we saw and making a fuss over the little ones. Not to mention thoroughly enjoying the one time a year when it OK to accept candy from strangers.
I'd love to write more, but my sons are asleep now, so it's time for me to raid their candy bags....
Happy Halloween!
