For those who know her, it shouldn't come as any surprise that Esmé chose a pig as her Halloween costume. For my part, my reaction was mostly one of relief, I knew I could manage that with a little felt, glue, trial and error. It was difficult to get her to wear the nose, though she was willing to hold it up for some photo-ops. We attended the town parade the day before. And then hit the sidewalks for what proved to be a rather drizzly first trick-or-treating experience. We stuck to neighborhood homes, and Esmé was mainly perplexed by why we weren't actually going into the homes themselves. These were our friends after all. Couldn't we just have an impromptu playdate? She did, however, totally get the candy thing. That required no explanation on my part, oddly enough considering she's never really had any. She just got it. Candy? Oh yeah.
