My granddaughter and I see Halloween differently. For her it’s excitement, parties, and dressing up in costumes. For me it’s an evening when the door bell rings and we give candy to strangers or in some cases neighborhood children who I should recognize (but don’t). Our contrasting views of Halloween might find a little common ground if I were taking my granddaughter around to our neighbors or going with her to homes she knows in her community. The 20 plus miles and the difference in age puts our Halloween experience in two different worlds, but maybe I’ll give her a call tomorrow and have her tell me all about it.
