i love the lights. they look so cheerful driving by. one year, i had had a particularly bad day at work, but when i turned the corner into our street, and saw the house all lite up, i felt so much better.
Some dreams are worth the risk it takes to make them real.
Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footsteps on the moon. |

Don't feel bad. I was a "cheated" child. The last of 4 children with a 13-16 year age gap. Yeah, I missed out on a lot that my other three siblings enjoyed. BUT.... I had my own perks too. I got away with a lot more simply because my folk didn't have the "mojo" to fight me about it all. It all balances out, and now I still LOVE hearing the stories of my siblings growing up together, and they are all very tender towards me as their baby sister, so again, there are perks, even though we are a little cheated.
^^^I'm a RidgeRunner, and will always feel best when surrounded by the PA mountains.^^^

Bumping this up. Why?
My 11 year-old is approaching her 12th birthday in a few months. She was begging for a "Halloween" party, because this was her first year not going "trick or treating."
Then I was reminded of my own childhood. I loved to dress up and such, and of course get all that candy.
So we had a little party. We all kind of dressed up - me in a pink wig and fancy sunglasses (hilarious at that), and got lots of and lots of party food.
We kind of over did it, but she had fun, and now has the memories. I may have to walk a bit more on the treadmill today, to work off those chocolates and chips, but life is short.
Enjoy your kids while you can.
