Halloween....

Well, here it is mid-August, and she really really wants to make plans for Halloween. She's decided that she's going to be a "dark" goth cheerleader complete with furry boot covers, black tights, black top, black skirt, black pom poms, and black makeup. Oh, and let's not forget the black shiny spray for her hair. I asked her, what's the fun with that, and she's just convinced that that's the outfit she has to have. Today, she really wanted me to call in and order her entire outfit from the costume catalog we got a week ago. Wow, why can't the catalog people send out those catalogs in October? Anyway, I'm gonna do my best to get her the outfit that she is convinced she wants. After all, what kind of mother would I be if I didn't make sure she looked as "dark" and gloomy as she wanted? Who knew that the teen angst would start at ten?
