That's a ghost.
woooooooooo.
This is the time of year I wish I could just loan someone's kid and go out and have a bunch of fun. Adults look creepy going trick-or-treating by themselves, or going to the science museum, or making gingerbread houses. Adults get laughed at for getting excited about gingerbread men, getting a bunch of chocolate coins ready, or making drawings of hand-turkeys.
There should be some sort of kid loan, for sure! Especially to go out to things like trick-or-treat block parties and the obligatory Nutcracker show, or sledding and snowballs and playing in piles of leaves....cause let me just warn you, adults that do this get the side-eye a lot. A LOT! From personal experience, I speak.
It's like, not acceptable for an adult to make a pile of snowballs and launch them at unawares visitors or friends in the neighborhood. Totally not acceptable. But if you have a kid with you, it's allllll ok (probably still irks the neighbors and they still think you're a douche, but whatever).
Late fall and winter are the best. The best holidays and activities. So much fun! So much unattainable without a kid by your side, fun!
Adults going to the pumpkin patch and looked at as potential pervs at worst and just plain weirdos in general.
alas alas alas.
So, definitely looking forward to having an excuse to do all these fun things without getting put on the neighborhood watch list or some such.
Is it acceptable to drag a 12 month old baby around to trick-or-treat? We shall SEE!
BOO!
