Today is Halloween day.
This is the first time for four years that I didn't go any party for Halloween, mostly because of the big mid on the day after tomorrow.
But, I put a light on a cute, small, tin pumpkin lamp, which I found from a box in a closet, and placed on my old TV. So, now I can see little Halloween in my room.
It's cute.

Halloween was quiet here too. My youngest was too old to go out trick or treating, but we handed out sweets at the bookstore and carved a big pumpkin. My youngest is 16 but has Down Syndrome--do you know what that is? He's a great kid, but mostly functions at about an 8 year old level. He decided he was too grown up to dress up. Kind of made me sad--the end of an era. I love Halloween because it is so open hearted and neighborly, at least in our little town.
Though I'm not familiar with them, I know what Down Syndrome is.
I have one cousin who has this. She is older than me, but also acting like a kid too.
But when I looked that family, it seemed that every one in the family really loves the child.
They might had had a hard time, but it seems that they already created small utopia inside the home.
Your cousin's family is fortunate to be able to create that small utopia. Sometimes my friends (not close ones, but acquaintances) talk with pity about how hard it must be to have a child like this. I always laugh at them. There are challenges, true, but sometimes lots of fun as well. And my son has the gift of being able to relate to people very directly. He doesn't care if you are rich or poor or whatever--he just seems to see into the center of good hearts.
