[blparent] Halloween?

[Jo Elizabeth Pinto]

I'd never thought about doing costumes at church before, but we have a small 
congregation, and a couple of the girls asked if they could wear theirs.  So 
then the Sunday school teacher, my friend Cathy, decided she would go as a 
Southern belle because she has an old wedding dress she's planning to dye 
purple.  She wants me to figure out something, too.

The best costume I ever had was the cat suit my mom made me when I was maybe 
around ten years old.  It was a black body suit, even with feet and mittens 
and a hood with ears.  I had a tail and even a bow around my neck with bells 
on it.  I don't think I'll ever manage anything like that for Sarah, but I'm 
thinking she'll like dressing up anyway.  She's old enough to go to a few 
doors with Gerald and get candy, though I'll be pretty selective about what 
she gets to eat.
