Blue Halloween Fing

We were are target to make it to preschool ON TIME today.

Front door locked.

Car door opened.

Jayson turned to me and asked, "Where's my blue Halloween fing?"

I thought real hard, even with abstract thinking I couldn't conceive what that could be. "I don't know where that could be. Don't really know what it is Goose."

"I can get it quickwee."

His eyes were the richest shade of blue holding the deepest amounts of sincerity. I couldn't refuse him.

Back to the front door, undo the lock, follow him through the entry to the family room to see what he would retrieve.

A navy blue bandana. That was it. His Blue Halloween Thing that he's been carrying around from the Halloween costume box since last night is this silly bandana. He loves it. He accidentally dipped it in his cereal milk this morning. He whipped me with it at family prayers last night. It is cooler than any of his toys in his room.

We made it to preschool. I completely forgot to pack him a snack, but he didn't seem bothered. He had his blue Halloween fing.
