We have already started getting catalogs with Halloween costumes. Pace loves to peruse these catalogs and imagine himself taking on the villains of Gotham City as Batman or swinging from a spider-web as Spiderman. The other day, I was thumbing through the catalog when I saw the cutest little witch costume. I don’t usually regret not having a little girl but there are times when I see cute outfits and I wish I had a little girl to dress up.
Pace came in and saw me looking through his catalog. He said, “Mommy, what are you doing?”
“Looking through this costume catalog. Look how cute some of these little girl costumes are. Don’t you think they’re cute?”
“I guess. But I want to be Luke Skywalker with the Jedi Knight light saber.”
I continued to skim the catalog as he pretended to swing and swish a light saber through the air. I said, “I know, but maybe, just this one year, we could get you this cute little Starry Witch costume. Please – just this once?”
The pretend light saber froze mid-air and with a true look of horror on his face Pace responded, “NO WAY MOMMY! If I wore a GIRL costume, that would embarrass me in front of the whole Halloween!!!”
Its true; the whole Halloween would be aghast if Pace showed up in a Starry Witch costume.
I turned the page and wondered if they had any cute costumes for cats.
He's hilarious! :) Love it!
ReplyDeleteSo cute. I think Pace and my Zach would be good friends . . . light sabers and all! Miss you all.
