holy halloween

This is the first year the girls have specifically requested halloween decorations. I opted for fake cobwebs covering our wrought iron railings outside. We were on the stairs, working together to get them just right when an elderly man with white hair, glasses and a cane shuffled past the house. Lauren saw him and announced, "We're putting on spider webs!" The man, surprised to be spoken to, looked up at her briefly and replied, "Oh," before continuing on his way. He was just out of sight when Lauren looked at me with a smile and said, proudly, "The prophet said, 'Oh.'"
