This was the first Halloween that M went out trick or treating, and it was a huge success!!
With the company of her cousins showing her the ropes she was a pro by the second house. Once she learned that she gets free candy just by knocking on the door and saying trick or treat she had no time to waste. She couldn’t move fast enough to the next house.
I thought she would be afraid or not into it seeing as how she’s really not into attention from strangers but she loved it! She said thank you at every house which I’m really happy about.
It amazed me how quickly she picked it up and how she just got it, what to do and what to say. I guess since she’s my first I don’t know what speed or age kids are supposed to adapt to new things but she amazes me all the time. I’m so proud of her.
Today we went to a Bar Mitzvah and she danced up a storm on the dance floor, surprising me once again. She’s usually so shy and today she was on the dance floor the whole time. She’s still a little reluctant with people she doesn’t know but she’s getting better. And I can’t ask for more.
