Well, last night at the church Halloween carnival, The Politician went costume-less. Sigh. I thought I had the perfect plan this year and was sure he would wear a costume- he even acted excited about the fire chief jacket that I had gotten for him.
But as we were getting out of the Fan (family van) last night I said, "OK, Politician, let's get your costume on!"
Politician: Nah, I don't think so.
Sasha: Are you sure? Everyone will have theirs on.
Politician: No, I don't want to wear it right now.
So we went in and I thought, surely he'll change his mind once he sees everyone in costume.
Nope. I asked him again, and he said "No, Momma, I told you, I don't want to wear a costume."
So there we were, the Sasha family, the only kids in the whole place without a costume. (I had opted not to even try to put a costume on The Wild Child because she is cutting her 2 year molars and was pretty much in a pissy mood.)
Also, chalk another qualificiation up for my Mom of the Year Award, because I forgot to bring a treat or trick bucket for him to carry around. So I ran out to the car and found a random plastic sack for him to use. The upside of all this is that my kids are going to grow up with very low expectations for life since I never have my act together and am never organized.
