Last night was as fun as they come, complete with pizza before trick-or-treating and enough candy to last us for a few weeks. We walked along Main Street with a thousand other neighbors, and it was the best to pass so many familiar faces as we made our way from house to house. The people in this little town have become like family over the span of our lives together, and now being to call this town our home is one of our great privileges.
Last year on this day, we walked the Haltis around our soon-to-be house, and this year they joined us for dinner in that same place that we have called home since shortly after that. Time flies, even when you hang on to every moment for as long as you can.
This day, all of its moments, is a day that I'll keep hanging on to.
Especially this one.
That shirt I once wore when I was pregnant with the one whose hands are saying hello to his little sister. Those hands on top of mine and Braxton's that welcome us in. The big smiles we wear as we anticipate baby girl's birthday quickly approaching. The love that can be felt even by just looking at this photo.
On this Halloween, my oldest child and soon-to-be youngest child, Lord willing, were together.
And there's nothing happier for a mommy than that.
