It's 9:50am, the day after Halloween and I am the only one up still. Adam and my little bumble bee must have had a little too much fun last night! I missed Halloween with my family this year. I always go to work feeling a little bit sad that the career I chose is a 24/7 operation and I am expected to hold up my end of the holiday shifts. The sadness only lasts my morning commute and once I step in the doors of SCH I am reminded that I have a healthy kid and that Halloween costumes aren't all that important. It is a very humbling experience to be caring for the most fragile of children when they should be home with their families running from door to door trick or treating or giddy with excitement opening gifts on Christmas. It's a sacrifice I am reminded I am willing to make.

So Kaylen was a bumble bee this year and despite my failed attempts to put her costume on her the week before Hollow's Eve, she willingly put it on for Adam. Go figure. They had a great time at Grandma and Grandpa's house. She said "trich o trea" and I got a bunch of great blurry text pictures on my I phone. Taresa (my good friend and co-worker) and I went out for tacos after a long weekend of 12 hour shifts and celebrated our own Halloween, sans kids and husbands.

Thank God every day for places like SCH and people like you who can do what you do! Happy Halloween (a day late)!
