Halloween
PocaDeia (little indian princess) was on fire this Halloween. We thought she might be 1 year too young for the madness of trick or treating, but no. Deia completely understood that everyone wore costumes, that you could say something and get chocolate (everything was chocolate...as far as she is concerned there is no other candy than that), and that daddy looked silly in his fear the beard Brian Wilson getup. Mommy was a black cat...with balck wig, ears, whiskers and a tail. We went to the Vadas home for the pre-party and Deia freaked out over the first mask she has ever seen. It took some coaching to get her to be ok with the many other masks she would see. We called them "funny hats" and she would tell the funny hats to go away. We went up and down Rialto with Tal, Shelley and Stephan. We spent some time with Chris and Flynn too! Alecs hung out most of the night when we were home and papi and noni showed up to trick or treat! Trick or treating did get hectic, as Rialto Ave is a hot spot and gets very crowded. So returning home to dish out candy was the best idea of the night. We gave away every last piece of about $350 in candy!!!!!! That's how many people showed up! The most fantastic part of the whole night was Deia taking the initiative to pass out candy. She was in heaven seeing all of the children, she would talk to them, give them a fist full of candy and then wish them a happy halloween. It was remarkable. We were surprised by her enthusiasm and hysterical by the site of her sugar rush. Great night altogether!
