Dress Brother for Halloween
DD is obsessed with dressing her brother for Halloween. She has suggested several costumes. She is three. He is sixteen.
For example:
- Mama, for Halloween I will be a princess. Bubba can wear the fireman costume. It is too big for me. And he is a boy.
- Maybe he can be the doctor. But I don’t think so.
- It is not nice that Bubba can’t wear the fairy costume because he’s a boy.
Shaun of the Dead
He is not pleased.
I asked him what he has in mind. He said, “Shaun.”
I asked, “Shaun of the Dead?”
He said yes.
Yes! I get cool points for that.
Today DD says, “Mama, for Halloween I will be a princess. Who will be the prince?”
I suggested Daddy. (Hee hee.)
She said, “And Bubba! Bubba can wear a crown.”
When her brother arrived home she told him of her plans for him to wear a crown… and cape… and tights. She’s sorry the wand is broken.
He is not amused.

cool points are only good for boosting of the ego. unfortunately you can’t trade them in for anything of value, and you can lose them all to quickly for walking in on the kids’ friends in a bathrobe and flannel pjs lol
In my house I think of cool points as a temporary decrease in teen hostility.
The robe and pajamas are a hollow threat. I don’t own those items. And I can’t remember the last time he had a friend over.
You don’t own a bathrobe? They are one of my true comforts. I have three made of terryclothe alone.
No, I don’t own a bathrobe. I continue to buy them, dislike them, donate them to charity. I put them on and feel like such a frump I can’t get comfortable. But I continue to buy them because I like the idea. It’s silly.
I have a pink one that is monogrammed, it makes me feel a little special. My mom bought my first one from Macy’s in the women’s section when I was about 10. It went down to my ankles. I still wear it.
That’s funny! I especially like the tights part…but doesn’t every prince need tights?
LOL
