- Boo is officially over four feet tall. If his growth rate follows the curve I think it’s going to, he will be taller than me sometime in his freshman year.
- “Old age and treachery” may be my only acceptable tactic.
- I need to talk to Girlie Bear about using “knife hands” when talking with other JROTC cadets.
- Taking four small children trick or treating at the zoo was a lot of work, but also a lot of fun.
- Someone needs to take the mothers of America and explain a few things about costumes.
- If you’re old enough to have seen the Wizard of Oz on the big screen, then you shouldn’t dress up as a sexy Dorothy for Halloween.
- Dressing up with your kids is fun and creative and wonderful. Dressing up in something between Portuguese cathouse and streetwalker and going to the zoo with your kids is none of those.
- If your child’s costume looks like something out of “Blood Runs Red on the Highways”, then you might want to ask Junior to tone it down a bit before going to an event with toddlers.
- Boo has apparently learned to dance, and seems to enjoy it. I have footage from the “disco” area of the zoo’s Halloween party tonight, and it is being carefully archived. It will be trotted out when he brings home that special girl.
- We went to a wedding on Friday night. It’s kind of nice to go to something like that and have it be done tastefully and simply.
- Reading an extremely well written history book can lead to you being up until 2 in the morning reading, then laying awake thinking “How did they survive that and come out OK?” for an hour.

/ October 16, 2013Gosh. Large Fry only passed the 48″ mark last summer! And she was 7 then. I can’t imagine…
Due to my ankle’s dislike for colder temps and lots of walking, Hubby usually takes the kids trick-or-treating. I stay home and hand out candy. Last year, Hubby dressed up too…he put on flannel pajama pants, a t-shirt, his bathrobe, and accessorized with a travel mug of hot coffee and a newspaper. He was a Lazy Dad.

/ October 16, 2013I was tall for my age too. But Boo reminds me of my youngest brother so much I wouldn’t be surprised if he doesn’t outgrow me.
I may emulate Hubby on that this year. Of course, that’s my normal attire after work.
