Haloween was a pretty big deal when I was younger. My mom used to make me these amazing costumes that always won the contests at school. I have been a jar of jelly beans with a little silver lid hat, a bag of Peanut M&Ms, even an Alkaseltzer Tab with little silver balloons floating above me as my bubbles. All home made. My mom really got into it.
I, on the other hand, go to the store and let Aiden pick a costume. I am not that into Haloween anymore. And I definitly don't sew any awesome costumes! Jeff and I rarely dress up. Two years ago we went to our Sunday School class costume party. We went as an Electric Plug and a Socket. Jeff was the Plug, I was the Socket. I understood the "sexual connotation" but didn't realize people like my Music Minister and his wife would be stopping by. I almost had a heart attack until the Priest and the Pregnant Nun walked in......... anyway, I digress!
Today Ben saw the costumes in the Walmart aisle and told me, "Mom I am Batman! Please I am Batman." His way of asking to get the Batman costume. OK, sounds good, easy, nothing complicated for me to do. "Sure, you can be Batman." He looked at me, utterly offended "NO! I am NOT BAD MAN! I am Batman, Mom!" And then he laughed hysterically at his "joke"! Can you imagine how huge of an eyeroll I just did? Here is a pic:
