I know what you mean Laurie -- about the trick or treating. Mikey usually

makes it to about to about 2 -3 houses also. He just doesn't get it. It

makes me sad too. A lot of this kind of stuff makes me sad -- but he's OK with

it all -- I guess it's just a sobering dose of reality for ME. But I still

need to send him to school with a costume -- so we do that and then I usually

go to a friends house to pass out candy. We live on a country road and don't

get any trick or treat-ers. He was cookie monster for the last two years and

I think I have to change it up a bit this year.

Maybe Elmo??

Patty we shut off all the lights and close the drapes on Holloween if we get

trick or treaters and we do Mic just shreaks and slams the door in their

faces.Im looking for a party this year and see what happens.We havent given up

after 5 years of this.Im sure in the city at the Center for Disabled theres

somewhere we can try.I think he would enjoy other kids dressed up and running

around just not him dressed up. Its something about the opening and closing

doors that seems to get at him with the trick or treating. Laurie

Black or brown sweat suit with hoody. Pair of white socks sewn on hood for

ears. White or black or brown tail sewn on seat of pants. Face make up for

rabbit or dog . Finito. Work time for costume - 10 minutes tops. Reuse

sweat suit after holiday by removing scokc and put in sock drawer.

Cost?? Maybe $10 if you buy nice inexpensive sweats at K-mart or similar.

Not only can't

she do parties, she HATES the costume thing. But oh, how she loves the

candy!!!!!!!candy

Trisha doesn't even like the candy. At school they send little bags of

candy home and she just " stores " it in her room and I cannot remove it, at

least

not all at one time. I have to go in and remove a few pieces at a time until

it is empty. Last year the school did a halloween parade and the day of the

parade Trisha woke up sick with a fever, it's like her body knew she didn't

want to do this and helped her find a way not to. She was sick as a little

dog that " one " day.

how about Sponge BoB?? use to HATE I mean HATE any costomes

till I found out his real issues were with anything that went on his

head. A few years back Sponge Bob was a biggy here for Halloween and

no head dress just a pull over type costume. He was so funny the

first year he just carried it in his school Parade and showed

everyone LOL the next year he wore it :-D The last two years he has

been the Tin Man. gets very fixed on things so YUP you guessed

it again this year he wants to be the Tin Man :-/ I am least trying

for maybe the Scare Crow LOL the same theme but different character

BUT so far he is not agreeing LOL
