BOO!

Caroline is so funny... I mean, she really is. The girl is a DRAMA QUEEN - Travis says she is the embodiment of karma, and I am not sure if I should be insulted or flattered - it all depends on the circumstances precluding his making the comment! This weekend we began to decorate the front porch for Trick or Treating and, for the last several years, we have had an animated witch on display. She is motion activated and makes all kinds of spooky comments (one of them is, "Double, double, toil and trouble," which to Caroline is "Bubble, bubble, toys and trouble") and Caroline has a serious love/hate relationship with "Scary Witch." She loves her, yet she is absolutely terrified of her. So, this year, I got another one, a skeleton/ghoul and she REALLY hates him. We named him Ebenezer (aka Ebe-noozer to Caroline), and he totally freaks her out. Nevertheless, I was able to get her to pose with them for a couple of pictures. Conditions: she did not have to touch them, and I turned their power switches OFF!

and black cats are seen,
the moon laughs and whispers,
