I had trouble when it came to the twins' Halloween costumes this year. They are 2 years old. They are picky and temperamental. What could I possibly dress them up in? I mean, they will never remember this Halloween. It is more for me to feel good about myself as a mother. So, I came up with an idea on costumes that would be easy. Ponchos! I made a ghost poncho for John. Just flip it over the head. For Elinor, I made an owl poncho with a headband. So, we went to a community Halloween party last night. Disaster. Neither would wear their costume. Neither would stand with me. I finally had to scoop them up and leave. It was unsafe. I felt defeated as a twin mom. No costumes and no party. No fun.
However, today at home was a different story for Elinor. I could not keep the darn costumes away from her. (John still needs convincing)..
There's always next year!
