Happy Halloween!
Why melancholy?
Last night after carving the pumpkins, my daughter said she felt really sad because she is not going out 'trick or treating' this year and that she never would again. Yes she is growing up, she forgets that as a child she did half the street, had enough and came home and didn't eat most of her candy, that last year she went out with a few girlfriends and couldn't wait to get home to hand candy out to the little ones, that now she is able to drive a car, that tomorrow night she is going to watch her boyfriends hockey game. She will 'trick or treat' one day again with her own little ones--but not for a very very long time! Maybe then I will be a bit melancholy.
So I made up a treat bag for her using a paper bag and fun stamps from Reverse Confetti.

What a fabulous treat bag. I know my daughters would love one, if I had thought to make it! Such a tricky time, when they are in between being a kid and being a grown up.
Cute treat bag Tracey...yes, a bittersweet day when your kids realize they have outgrown something they once loved.
