Halloween Means Happy Birthday for My Son
Halloween has always been one of my favorite holidays. How could I not love a holiday that allows me to dress up and get candy (at least when I was younger)?
Then, just a few years ago, my little boy was born just before Halloween. Suddenly, Halloween took on a whole new meaning. We didn’t get to dress up that year; they didn’t seem to think costumes worked in the maternity ward ; )
Then for his first birthday, what else could we do but have a huge costume party?
Now, I figure that anyone with kids gets to have an extra special Halloween just from vicariously watching their children’s enjoyment in dressing up as someone or something different and taking them around to gather way too much candy. However, when you have a child born right around Halloween, it just adds an extra spark.
This week, my son was lucky enough to get to have a party in his class at school, followed by the school’s Fall Festival, perhaps even featuring venetian masks from a good place like Abracadabra NYC, and topped off the evening with a few hours at Disneyland.
Now, today, is his costume birthday party followed by an evening of Trick or Treat.
Is he worried that Halloween might overshadow his special day? Not at all. He has just incorporated it in to the holiday to make it even more special.
And, for me, it is just one more reason to really enjoy Halloween. Now, I have two goblins wonderful children with whom to share Halloween.
So, I am off to celebrate one more Halloween birthday!
May you all have a safe and sane fun Halloween!
