Hello everyone. Today is the glorious holiday, Halloween. Yes, this is a fun time of year and free candy all I have to do is turn into a character? Uhm, YES PLEASE!! One, of the many, good things about having a toddler…you officially have an ADULT reason to dress up!

With all this fun stuff happening what could be the problem? NEVER ask that question ’cause God will answer. He will show you. First off is the little white prius on the highway that, apparently, did not wake up in time. Listen sir, I was already in the middle of switching lanes before you ever came flying around that curve, so I suggest you silence that “BEEPING” horn of yours. (I actually mean beeping. Have y’all ever heard a prius’ horn? BEEEEEEP) Second off, compared to your golf cart of a car, my midsize SUV is a tank so I suggest you thank Jesus I’m a kind soul. Otherwise you coming over on top of me at 70 miles an hour would have been ugly!! Now you know how I know he didn’t wake up…the speed limit was 60. (Dear Lord, forgive me of my speeding. I know it’s illegal to speed but, 60 on a highway?!) Needless to say I was calling you a name, ya jack…..butt. (Butt is being nice) Hope you made it safely Speedy McGee.

Another thing about Halloween as an adult…costumes. Costumes as an adult can be fun, they don’t have to be dirty or revealing. Most mommas would prefer they weren’t so revealing! One thing you don’t think about is how a man’s seemingly harmless costume could be bad. Well, the spiderman that made my smoothie this morning really could have used a little extra material. Or maybe just a different material. There wasn’t much left to the imagination. (Holy Spandex, Spidey) It didn’t help that he was an handsome young man and tall. The only thing I could see through the drive thru window, Shoulders to just below the derriere. Yes, I was eye level with this young man’s backside. (Dear Lord, forgive me for the thoughts that flew into my mind at the drive thru this morning. ) This is one of those times where the past that made me a mommy suddenly came flooding back! Woops, that came out of nowhere.

For all you mommas out there, I pray for you and your family on this crazy day!!

“No temptation^[a] has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted^[b] beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted,^[c] he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it.”
