Every night I say that I am going to bed, Im going to bed! And every night I stay up later and later. Last night I went to bed at 3 am and woke up at 8:20 to get Jacob dressed. He was just going to go to school in regular clothes. So I looked through his clothes and he had a grandpa sweater. Found a hat from my dad. Didnt have any face paint so I used my moms eye liners and eye shadow for his dark eye circles, eye brows, and beard. Wet his hair a little and dusted it with Cornstarch. Took out the lenses of an old pair of eye glasses. Gave him a gish to walk with and he was an old man. Last night and today was mostly for him. I was lazy about making the popcorn but did it because I thought about him and all the kids that were going to stop by. Even thought of the parents with the Caramel and Peanut Butter mixed Popcorn. It was fun. He dressed himself as a Ninja to go out trick or treating and came back not too long after because he slipped and scraped his elbow. Got him ready for the carnival. Found a Charlie Is My Homeboy t-shirt of my dads and was going to make him a white beard but couldnt find a crochet hook. So just did a thin make-shift wig with some white yarn. My dad had a blue ribbon hat and I told him to put his snowpants on and stuff it with some pillows. He said he never had a big butt before! LOL!! Got some ashes from the stove and made him a beard. He thought that was odd but we told him we used to do that all the time for Halloween. And my mom said you need a head lamp. Good thing my dad has them hanging right next to the door and we were out of there with the rest of the PB & C popcorn to hand out at the school. Everyone thought he was trying to be Charlie Boulding. But I told them hes Charlies Homeboy! LOL!! Scrounged around for 2 bucks to go with him in the Haunted House put on by the HS. Briana, and Tay ended up going with us. So there was me, a 9 year old (Jacob), an 8 year old (his cousin Tay) and an 11 year old (our friend Briana). Talk about Screaming because they screamed. We were almost out and someone came out of the dark and scared Tay and he we was off running to the exit. Briana and Jacob fell down and I was screaming. It was so much fun though. So happy that I can be there for my boy.
