Day 8
That Tiger, (my youngest son) has put a monkey wrench in my plans! A big ‘ole one.  He likes the Minecraft mask from the outside, but when I asked him to try it on, he said that it smelled bad, and he didn’t want to wear it. Really???!!  It smells bad???  Then, I tried it on.  It didn’t smell rotten or malodorus, it just smelled like cardboard.  I think That Tiger didn’t like it because he is a little claustrophobic, like yours truly. So now, the Minecraft costume is a bust.  I respect however, that he doesn’t want to wear a box over his head while trick or treating. So I will not push the issue.  I just calmly went to Target yesterday and bought him a Kylo Ren costume – safe and easy (and $40 bucks!).  Remind me not to make anymore costumes for my kids.

I should have learned from That Wolf (my oldest son) three years ago.  Remind me one day to tell you about the time I made That Wolf a wolf costume.

Ironically, my fabric shipped today.       Booooooooooo.
