it's not thriller.

note: 

brennan is plugging his ears 

b/c he's worried that the thriller song 

is going to come on the halloween mix 

i was playing tonight. 

the poor kid is still traumatized 

from last year when i had the 

brilliant idea to show it to him.

he plugged his ears for two whole songs 

before he finally believed me 

that it wasn't thriller playing.

awesome:)

i was chomping at the bit for bedtime tonight.

it was a day!!!

and i was just really ready for it to be over:)

like everyone cried and whined and fought all day,

and i didn't even want to carve pumpkins 

because i just wanted it to be over

kind of day.

and i'm just glad the day is over.

i helped brennan carve his skeleton pumpkin,

but i had a bad attitude in my head almost the entire time.

the kids were so proud of their pumpkins at the end.

and my haste in the skeleton's mouth made it smiling and happy.

but brennan was still just so proud and happy 

to outline and carve his very own pumpkin 

almost by himself this year 

that he didn't go on about it very long.

and as i'm sitting here thinking about 

their little smiling faces,

and carved pumpkins on my front porch 

i'm just wondering why i had such a bad attitude 

about carving that skeleton pumpkin anyway.

:/

the end.
