"Oooooo, der it is!" Harper is covering her eyes with one hand and sucking her other hand's thumb. "I'm so cared!" She is gritting her teeth into a wicked little smile. "Momma, aren't you cared?"
No, I am not scared. We are walking home from taking Lucy to school, it is 9am and we are passing the same houses we pass 4 times a day on this same journey. But I pretend because it is Halloween time, afterall, and the girls absolutely love the thrill of getting a bit spooked. But the conversation gets too cute to be frightening at all. "I'm sooooo cared. Dare are pooky piders and pooky keletons. Do you think it is pooky, Momma?" Not spooky, but not being able to say the "s" sound before all sorts of halloween words is indeed Boo-ti-full!
